This long-exposure shot attempts to encapsulate the awe-inspiring beauty of nature’s own light display on the sky above Blessington Lakes. A reminder of our planet’s place in the vast cosmic ballet.

Callanish Standing Stones
These ancient standing stones were erected in the late Neolithic era and are one of the oldest and largest megalithic sites in the UK. The site was a focus for ritual activity during the Bronze Age, and it’s easy to see why. The landscape is breathtaking, and the stones themselves are awe-inspiring.
