vO2 max score for heavier people

I just started running a couple months ago with the goal of improving my vO2 max into the mid 50s. Currently I'm sitting around 49. I went on a run recently with a friend who is about 35 lbs lighter than me (~165 vs 200) and noticed that although we ran the exact same pace and my average heart rate was a full 15bpm lower than his, his vO2 max score was 52.5 while mine was 49. After doing some reading I realized this is likely primarily due to the weight difference as your weight is the denominator for vO2 max, which I didn't know before. In light of this I'm wondering how much more difficult the mid 50's and above are to achieve if you're a little bit heavier - any 200+ people with high vO2 max scores here?

What is going on in the bottom corners of these photos?

This seems to happen any time the amount of light is over a certain threshold, but not otherwise. Kodak ultramax 400 on a pentax espio 120 sw
