Hundreds of thousands of people have lined the streets of Dublin where a parade has marked the 100th anniversary of the 1916 Easter Rising.
The military parade is the largest ever staged in the Republic of Ireland, and featured a fly-past over the city centre by the Irish Air Corps.
The 1916 rebellion was an attempt to overthrow British rule in Ireland.
Sunday's ceremony is the culmination of a series of centenary commemorations organised by the Irish government.
The 1916 Proclamation was then read out by an officer from the Irish defence forces, in a re-enactment of the declaration of independence the rebels made outside the GPO on 24 April 1916.
The president laid a laurel wreath in front of the building, before a minute's silence in tribute to the dead was observed.
