Had the pleasure of shooting Brian & Kelly's elopement here in the Hebrides today, all the way from the States, the weather was typically Hebridean for them but that didn't dampen their spirits. I thought I would share a few snapshots of their fantastic day!

Shots from the Lewis Car Club show and shine & drift show this Saturday.

It's been a fantastic few weeks of nice weather we have been having, a perfect opportunity for Bethany & Christopher to take a walk down Eoropie beach in Ness for their engagement shoot. Delighted to be covering their wedding this June.

Not long now!

A beautiful property in Strond we photographed for a new website. Whether it’s a small Airbnb or a Castle we have photo packages to suit!

So welcoming.

Something a little different from the wedding work last weekend. Lewis Car Club putting on another fantastic event at the Creed track with a huge turn out. Delighted to be involved with the club and these fortnightly events. Fancy a go? Check out the Lewis Car Club Page! You are welcome to come have a go of the McGinley - Photo SAAB Racecar!

Had a worry last week with my northern lights photos, I discovered rings in my pictures which gave me the fear, thinking that nearly £5k worth of gear was somehow broken, I emailed Nikon support. They replied with a very scientific answer! It was basically the radiation from the northern lights causing interference, very cool stuff!:

"I am sorry to hear of and see the issue you are having. I have seen this before and what we are seeing is not related to the lighthouse light output. The phenomenon in the photos is called 'Newton rings' and these can appear in the images of the Northern Lights. Monochromatic light omitted by oxygen atoms in the upper atmosphere can cause this type of interference due to the internal structure of some lenses. The Newton rings interference pattern occurs due to a specific wavelength of light in the image compared to ordinary light that causes the interference. The ring patterns are the result of interference fringes that do not occur with normal shooting.

Usually shooting at a wider aperture or at longer focal lenghts i.e. 70mm onwards can help in these cases but on occasion the phenomenon cannot be completely avoided.

The best I can advise in this case is looking online for some tutorials for image editing software that may be available to help remove these rings through editing.

I hope the above information is helpful and if you have any other queries for Nikon in the future please contact us again.

Kind Regards,

J.B. Maher
