Dawn for me is like the world taking a deep breath before the day. So as a human you also take your own breath before the sun. It’s time to be in the moment.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Lovely words Daryl

[@mawavoy]

This week’s image set contains some very peaceful photographs. Thanks for sharing. Bye for now.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you very much

[@marycarron5118]

Beautiful words, beautiful music, beautiful images. What a wonderful start to a Sunday morning. Thank you Kim.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you Mary! Glad you enjoyed it

[@susanfirth2279]

I will second what @marycarron5118 said. Looking forward to seeing next weeks episode.

[@sharondmeber3802]

LOVE everything about this video! Need to watch it over & over❤️

[@kimgrantphotography]

That's so lovely to hear! Thank you!

[@denisesavage2382]

Aaaahhhh . . . There’s something about the dawn mood. The images seemed to match the feel of dawn - of the world waking up - gently and unhurriedly. Beautiful Kim.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you Denise!

[@beathiltbrunner7070]

Beautiful video, Kim, the pictures say more than your explanation. The tranquility and contentment speak for themselves. Looking forward to next Sunday.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you very much!

[@donriemer]

Kim, this is your best video yet. You have become a much better filmmaker, and your photography is outstanding. Many thanks. See you next week.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you very much!

[@jderossett1]

Morning, the best time for photography!

[@janpieters9840]

Morning is the best time of the day for everything. I love the 'golden' light on the sand ripples.

[@steveklamkin]

EVERY frame of this is gorgeous, Kim, stills and video. Congratulations!

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you Steve!

[@RoyJenkinsPacker]

Lovely to here your thoughts. As seating by the coast with a cup of tea. Watch tide life coming waking up. Look forward to next week video.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you Roy

[@johnzapell1527]

Made it worth getting up this morning. Thanks

Thank you very much. You too!

You're welcome Diane! Great to hear you enjoyed it

Another great video, very tranquil and the abstract images deliciously beautiful, all the more stunning by their Scottish location. Love photographing ripples in sand with contrasting light locally when I combine with beach combing locally. Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@kimgrantphotography]

Really great to hear that you enjoyed the video. Lovely to hear you enjoy photographing ripples in the sand locally

[@sajjadal-lawati3133]

nice footage , coupled with your voice ( commentary ) and the music go all very well, the Scottish accent remind me the days i spent in Scotland during my study at the university of Glasgow >>> Thanks for sharing

[@MurphyGreg]

Your expression of the morning light and feels and how they makes us feel is so beautifully captured. I love your photographic expression of light and peace ❤

[@Joe-B1]

Good morning Kim and another exquisite vlog and thank you so much for sharing it. Always remember my mum use to say to me.... In the morning , instead of saying to yourself " I got to wake up " say " I get to wake up. Hope you have a wonderful week.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you for sharing this Joe! I love whu your mum used to say. It is such a lovely thing to say in the morning

Great video. ICM image 2 and the final ICM were stunning. What an inspiration

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you!

[@laurelb8372]

Being on a beach at dawn is truly good for the soul, lovely images Kim. Wish we got ripples like that in Australia. No need for heaps of chatter, just connect.

[@barryhiggott9458]

Well you certainly gave me inspiration to go out and take more ICM images and for me early morning is certainly the time I love best. I’m not a great lover of sunrises but I do love the time when there’s very few people around which allows me to immerse myself within my surroundings. At other times of day it can sometimes be intimidating carrying expensive gear around as not everyone can be seen as friendly as I’ve found out in the past so yes for me early morning is my time.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Lovely to hear you enjoy the early morning light Barry. It certainly is a lovely time of day ☺️

[@davidmill7289]

Reminded me of being at Aldeburgh beach in Suffolk for sunrise recently Kim - so relaxing. Love the ICM shots of the gulls.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Sounds like you had a beautiful morning there David. Thank you!

[@mayhamilton6652]

Dawn light is absolutely stunning. What beautiful images Kim. I love the ICM and abstract! Been watching too much Sci fi lately though as I thought the gulls were phasing out of time 😂. Excited for next week's adventure already ❤

[@kimgrantphotography]

Haha! That's funny to hear May. Glad you enjoyed the video. Dawn certainly is stunning

[@lichtbildmanufaktur]

Fantastic!

I very much enjoyed all of this gentle video.

Thank you Brenda

[@markserle2365]

Your weekly posts are so inspiring. One of the best channels for photography on KZbin! Thanks for sharing them Kim!

[@berkletheclownsvideos2461]

My favorite time of day for photography is during the pre-dawn hours. I like to be on location well ahead of blue hour which is perfect for long exposure photography. Anyway,I have found that those pre-dawn hours have a certain air of sacredness which demands reverence from me. Like you, I tend not to be too energetic for fear of breaking that reverence.

[@kimgrantphotography]

This is great to hear! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this time of day and how you approach it photographically. It certainly does feel like a sacred time of day

[@cesarm8811]

Kim, your video's are simply fun to watch. Your photos are heart felt and true to who you are... Always look forward to your next video.

[@rhodesia1578]

The day I bought my camera was the start of my journey . The photography made or brought me the important connection to nature as it’s all around us humans if we only make the effort to see its beauty from the other end of your lens . Loved your abstracts of the seagulls and ocean !

[@kimgrantphotography]

Beautiful words. Thank you for sharing your journey

[@rhodesia1578]

Like the bird photos. Sort of a impressionist type photos. Been playing with trying to get non clinical/tech perfect photos lately. Sometimes I get lucky & sometimes I get one by accident sort of by trying something different. All part of the fun for me.

[@kimgrantphotography]

This is lovely to hear Thomas. It certainly is fun to play around with things and see what we can come up with

[@Focusing_on_the_light]

Kim, wonderful video! For me sunrise is sacred time where I find God! Especially if I can manage to be alone in a location. The music and the photos paint a lovely picture even if you aren’t speaking. You are an inspiration!

[@kimgrantphotography]

This is so lovely to hear! Sunrise certainly is a lovely time. Appreciate the kind words about the video

I really enjoyed this vlog! I enjoy your vlogs, but this one seemed different, like a notch up for some reason. Maybe for the exact reason you mentioned in the video… some of these photos were phenomenal!!! And I loved the videography and music. Well done! 👏

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you so much Travis. I will need to do more like these. Seems many people have enjoyed this one

Blown away by your stunning ICM images! They really give a sense of calm. Thank You for sharing your gorgeous work and emotions.

[@rebeccajackson2326]

Your photos are absolutely stunning can you please make a video showing the technique of camera movement to get photos like these? I am a visual learner and videos help me more than reading text books.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you Rebecca. I'll need to check but I made a few videos on ICM and multiple exposures from last year. Hope you can find them and they cover what you're looking to learn

[@allroadsleadtoroam-8787]

What a great experience and boy do you come up with interesting images as seen through a 100-400 perspective. The ICM photo of the gulls with the mountains in the background is a personal favorite, so creative and the center gull adds so much personality to the image. Another very inspiring video, Kim. Thanks so much for taking us all along.

Kim, What a fantastic video. It is like a morning meditation. Pictures are fantastic so creative. Can you please tell me do you use lightroom classic ot lightroom CC I'm very confused by it.

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you very much Anthony. I have used both but use Lightroom Classic at the moment. It has much more options for editing.

[@anthonymcdonald8444]

@@kimgrantphotography thank you very much appreciated. I an new to photo editing.

[@frankinblackpool]

I liked the slow motion at the start of your episode. It was subtle and worked very well 😊 I think the calm measured tone in your voice complimented to slow motion at the start of the episode and flowed effortlessly and calmly to the closing scene. Not every KZbin presentation needs to be 101% exuberant energy. I do enough talking at work, so that when I’m at home or out and about, I much prefer to quietly and calmly flow through the day. Back in my yoof, you could not shut me up.😂

@@kimgrantphotography Ah sorry I’m a new follower I thought you were in scotland. Sorry scotland on my mind at the moment. We’ve just come back from our first ever Arran visit and it blew us away. Totally fluked a northern lights viewing too. Never thought I would in scotland.

Fantastic viedo, tips and tricks. Is this the Z6?

[@kimgrantphotography]

Thank you. Z7 II but I use the Z6 for filming and the odd photo too

[@daviddyephotography]

I also enjoy the calm serenity of mornings and evenings or just being isolated in a setting and this has always allowed me to become lost in the artistic process in a deeper level.
