Nicola Sturgeon took part in the minute's silence to commemorate The Duke of Edinburgh alongside millions across the country.
The First Minister emerged from Bute House in Edinburgh just before the short period of national reflection started at 3pm.
Sturgeon donned a black suit with white piping for the occasion and stood solo outside her official residence.
The Duke of Edinburgh passed away on April 9, just two months before his 100th birthday.
Crowds lined the high street outside the walls of Windsor Castle and along the Long Walk fell silent in remembrance of the nation's longest-serving consort.
People held Union flags, partners wore matching hats and others clutched bunches of flowers.
It came after the Royal funeral party arrived as part of a procession to St George's chapel.
We told earlier how sombre Princes Harry and William walked separately behind their grandfather Prince Philip's coffin at his funeral - after the Queen signed off plans for them to walk apart.
Photos from the funeral showed the brothers 'sandwiched' by cousin Peter Phillips who walked between them as they made their way to the chapel.
The Queen decided on "each and every" detail of Philip's funeral and has insisted that nothing "detract from what the day is about, commemorating the extraordinary life of her husband".
People had arrived steadily in the town throughout Saturday morning to pay their respects to the duke.
Some were seen wearing custom face masks bearing Philip's image.
Coronavirus restrictions meant that fewer people were able to visit the town to mark the occasion but residents praised the royal family for "setting an example" by limiting numbers during the ongoing pandemic.
Road signs in the area warned: "Avoid all non-essential travel and do not gather at royal residences," though some visited briefly to lay tributes to the duke.
Earlier we told how the Scottish Government warned Scots not to travel or gather near Royal Residences north of the border.
The slight easing of Covid-19 restrictions on Friday means Scots can now travel outside their local authority area for socialising and exercise.
