Both of the times I've seen her, she was standing, quite literally, directly in front of me. I noticed both her flawless skin and that her eyes are such a bright blue. She really seems to radiate graciousness.

Some of the best energy vibes I've ever felt were the two occasions when I stood in a massive crowd, in front of the palace, with the Royals standing on the balcony - once for her official birthday, and the other on Silver Jubilee day.
