Photograph of Piper Colin MacKenzie of The Cameronians (Scottish Rifles), c. 1881.

A studio shot such as this can not always be taken as an accurate representation of a soldier's uniform. Often the soldier would borrow items of uniform such as buckles from other regiments in the barracks, in order to look his best for the photograph.
