Yep, weโ€™re referring to that aerial shot of Harry and Meghan in their carriage begin the procession around Windsor, and weโ€™ve lost count of the amount of times weโ€™ve spotted it on social media.

It was popular for many reasons: it provided an intimate portrait of the newlyweds, and as they hold hands it looks like they are shaping a heart.

Plus, it gives a different view of that stunning Givenchy wedding dress, with delicate off-the-shoulder neckline.

The snap was taken by Yui Mok, a staff photographer for Press Association, and he took to Twitter to reveal how he got that winning shot โ€“ and before you ask, it wasnโ€™t a drone.

โ€˜I was positioned on the roof of George IV Gateway of Windsor Castle, and they passed directly beneath me during their carriage procession,โ€™ he said.

โ€˜I had less than a one-second window to take that particular shot โ€“ whilst having to focus through a metal grill I was standing over โ€“ so was happy to get anything really!โ€™

Hands down the standout shot from the Royal wedding, and thatโ€™s saying something.
