If you want a picture with a guard, you have to walk down next to the courtyard and turn at the corner to Pall Mall, here is a guard standing alone. You can stay next to him and just make a photo.
He will probably not give any sign of life, but that's the greatest in it. :D
Address:
Buckingham Palace London, SW1A 1AA
Price:
Both the watching and the picture with the guard are free.
Opening Hours:
The Change is at 11:30 every day during spring and summer and every other day in fall and winter.
