A photographer visiting the Isle of Lewis has shared images of the Northern Lights and star trails above the island in photos have been called "spectacular".
Jason Spinks captured the stunning photographs on Boxing Day. They are suitably wintery — a thick sheet of snow can be seen covering the ground and the roofs of nearby buildings.
An aurora is a natural light display that shimmers in the sky. Most are green in colour, though sometimes hints of pink, red, violet, and white can be seen. Spinks' photos show a gorgeous mix of pink, green, and yellow in the skies over Lewis.
