The Name
"MacIomhair" is my surname in Scottish Gaidhlig ("Maciver" on my passport in the English tongue) and represents my culture and heritage and perhaps my inspiration...

The Quote
"The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box." - Henri Cartier Bresson is the photographer I most admire, even though I like to take pictures of completely different subjects. While I do admire a large number of other eminent photographers, I keep returning to HCB.

Me
I am Scottish, currently living in Aberdeen, originally from the Outer Hebrides. I like to photograph history or evocations of history. I am but a keen amateur and am constantly looking to learn and further develop my abilities.
