Prince Charles is captured looking relaxed in his garden and beaming with pride at his grandson in new images released this week.
Getty photographer Chris Jackson, who travels the world with the royals, spent much of the last year documenting intimate and 'behind the scenes' moments with Charles to celebrate his 70th birthday.
The resulting images offer a rarely seen look into the off-duty life of the heir to the throne.
Speaking to FEMAIL, body language expert and author Judi James explained the images offer insight into different aspects of Prince Charles' personality - although some appear slightly more staged than the royal household might have hoped.
Proud grandfather: The Prince of Wales enjoys some quality time with his grandson Prince Louis. Body language expert Judi James notes the future king's face is 'wreathed in a congruent smile of pride'
Opinionated writer: Charles' 'enquiring mind' is apparent in this image of him riding the royal trian. The busy royal shows his engagement in broader issues as he reads briefing notes
Among the standout photos is one of Prince Charles, affectionately known as 'Grandpa Wales', cradling his seven-month-old grandson Prince Louis in the grounds of Clarence House, London, in September.
Another shows the royal tending to his prize-winning chickens in the grounds of Highgrove House - the place Charles has described as his 'haven'.
The image of Charles as the proud grandfather shines through in the snap of the prince with his young grandson.
'This is clearly the money shot,' Judi explained. 'With the grandpa holding an adorable baby Louis with his face wreathed in a congruent smile of pride.
While this shot, taken at Highgrove House in Tetbury, is designed to look casual and informal, Judi suggests it is 'generations away' from the 'genuine informality' shown by his sons
Doting dad: Remarking on this outtake, Judi James says, 'Harry is known for his sense of humour and that seems to bring out the fun and rather boyish side of the prince'
Hands-on landowner: Charles feeding his prized Burford Brown and Maran chickens first thing in the morning at home in Highgrove, an image that appears 'a tad staged' according to Judi
'Babies and dapper smart suits are a dangerous combination which is possibly why Charles is holding the baby rather gingerly here though.'
His bond with his sons Harry, 34, and William, 36, is also apparent in an candid snap of the three men in military uniform.
'Charles also looks like a doting dad here withe the bias on Harry in this pose,' Judi noted.
'Harry is known for his sense of humour and that seems to bring out the fun and rather boyish side of the prince while William stands much more formally and protectively on his other side.'
Informal prince: According to Judi James, this photo of Charles strolling between hedges at Highgrove paint the image of him as an isolated but thoughtful man 'happy in his own pursuits'
The Prince of Wales shares a Joke with Dame Judi Dench and David Mills ahead of a reception at Dumfries House on May 3 this year, released to mark Charles' 70th birthday
Prince Charles meets schoolchildren in the open-air swimming pool at just outside Dumfries house on May 4 as part of his royal duties. The snap was taken by Chris Jackson for Getty
Meanwhile the photos of Charles in his garden at Highgrove paint the image of Charles as an isolated but thoughtful man 'happy in his own pursuits'.
While there is no doubt the shots are designed to look casual and informal, Judi suggests it is 'generations away' from the 'genuine informality' shown by his sons in their public outings.
Charles as the hands-on landowner is communicated in a fourth photo of him feeding his prized Burford Brown and Maran chickens first thing in the morning at home in Highgrove.
The Prince stands outside Highgrove House as he walks out to his Aston Martin DB6 Volante parked on the driveway. It was last seen at the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
Prince Louis can be seen laying an inquisitive hand on his grandfather's face in the adorable series of photographs published by Clarence House this week to mark Charles' 70th birthday
But Judi noted: 'The way he has just tucked his suit trousers into his wellingtons makes the moment less congruent here. The prince clearly does engage in his passions but this look is less convincing and a tad too staged.'
The busy royal shows off his level of engagement in broader issues in a shot of him reading briefing notes on the Royal Train on the journey from London to Durham.
'With his red folders at his side and his glasses perched on the end of his nose Charles looks more like a PM here, hinting at the kind of political interest and enquiring mind that prompted his famous letter-writing,' Judi notes.
'As he peruses his file his right toe is held up vertically, signalling genuine and possibly critical or opinionated interest.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
