It doesn't matter if there's no video tomorrow. I'd rather be knowing that you're healthy and enjoying whatever you do. There's no pressure at all except the one you decide to put on yourself. Huge thank you for what you've done so far.

Thank you so much for all you have done in helping us novice photographers improve, see things from different points of view, but more importantly, enjoying the well being that nature can bring. The way you open up and bare your soul is an inspiration to me. Whilst you take a break and regroup, I’ll be watching your earlier you tube clips, the message is still there. Take care Kim, God Bless

Kim, I am a 70 year old retried Sales Engineer (in South Florida), that has several hobbies Golf, photography, fishing, traveling and spending time with my grandkids. Your channels has help me with my photography hobby, in many ways. I really didn't subscribe to your channel for a weekly video, but for the content of your photography skills and your honestly. So having a video once a month or when your compel to share your wisdom will be fine with me. I will continue to subscribe to your channel, because of you and your great messages. Take care and go conquer!!!!

To be honest, I think what's missing on KZbin is this type of real, raw content. Everything anyone more has to be polished, refined, epic, over edited and over hyped. I miss the old KZbin of 2006-2012. It was about having fun and sharing a message back then. I think you have gave me the courage to be more vulnerable and raw in my own walk. I feel you though. Being a KZbinr can feel lonely at times even when you know you are speaking to people. The pressure and comparison can be a really heavy burden. Thank you for this talk, Kim.

I actually love these kinds of videos from photographers, and especially you Kim. I’m on a major healing journey of my own, and being out in nature with my camera has been my spiritual connection that is helping me. And while I will miss seeing a weekly photography video I think the videos will be much more special. You do what you want to do, and we’ll be here.

Kim I just found your channel about a year ago but I have been so encouraged by your own path on life and in photography. I too, have resettled with pivoting my channel to more outdoor adventures and camping rather than only photography. I have so many things to share and encourage to be in nature. So many other projects and messages to share. I know it's not the way to really grow but people change. We all do and it's not fair to ourselves to restrict that change and creativity as a creator. You are a beacon of light and a kind soul that is genuine. A rarity on social media these days. I only wish you success and good days ahead. Whatever you decide I know you will do great things. Most of us aren't going anywhere. Take care of yourself.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It meant a lot to read them. We must be true to ourselves in life and create the content that fills us with most joy. I find great release in simply speaking my thoughts to camera. I was always discouraged to do it by a few negative comments in the past and from seeing so much high quality, visually stimulating content by other creators....but it's not me. I guess now I'm finding the strength to let go of the limits I set on my mind. I sincerely wish you the best with sharing your calling too

I understand you completely. I have also had my fair share of setbacks in the past year, which has meant that I have lost quite a bit of weight. That's positive, everything else, almost having to sell my house, also turned out well. I have become more aware of everything and am turning my life around. Your videos on KZbin have helped me with that. I will continue to watch your videos as they come online. I hope that you can find peace within yourself and that life will be kind to you for the years to come.

The same voice that called you to nature photography is your guide. I, for one, feel it will be worth seeing where YOUR journey takes you. Here’s wishing you peace and great satisfaction.

Kim we appreciate all that you have given, there is a time when you have to take care of yourself and many people go through the same thing, winter's a hard time to get outdoors and many people use this time of year to take a step back and recharge. Photography has been a great part of my life and for over five years I photographed events for people that could not afford a professional photographer but as I got older and now my wife has retired I put aside event photography and got back to shooting for my self and family. Life goes by so fast so you need to follow your heart, good luck going forward, God bless.

Kim, I’m a 61 year old photographer from the USA/ Ohio. I’m Irish with a wee bit of Scottish. I absolutely love your channel, and your meditative approach to photography. There is no super zoom in my future, so macro is very accessible to me. You’re still young, as you get older, you realize the only asset that you really have is time. Be particular about where you spend it! Listen to your heart and your inner guide. I have a decision test I’ve used for 40 years. Get a coin and tell yourself you will flip it and go with decision A for heads and decision B for tails, and that you will stick with it no matter what. Flip the coin. If you want to go 2 out of 3 at that point, you really know what your heart wants to do! I look forward to seeing everything you will create on any platform! Peace and Love!

I've been watching you for years now from the United States. I understand everything you are saying. I struggle with community as well. None of my friends are interested in the outdoor activity anymore. plus moving back to new England to the town I grew up in, there are not many KZbin creators to collaborate with. I met two. One lives 1/2 hr away the other lives 2hrs away; and that's it. For many reasons I also closed my crafting business. Now I am focusing on sharing with others the beauty of getting outside in nature and getting back to my roots of incorporating landscape and nature photography into the sharing of my adventures. Being out in nature has such healing (emotional, psychological, and some physical) properties. We need to all slow down a bit and enjoy what God has given us. I love nature vlogging while doing photography.

I originally found your channel several months ago because I was searching how to photograph winter/snow. I loved your message of embracing the seasons and connecting through photography. Then after I was injured and couldn’t do much for several weeks, I saw your video about macro and the square area challenge. It was perfect timing for. After that I binge watched your videos and they have helped me on my own journey so much. I hope your journey continues as you want, choose, need it to. I admire you for following your heart and soul. It’s a beautiful and inspiring thing for me to be lucky enough to be some what a part of.

Your weekly videos have served a wonderful purpose for me and I will miss visiting with you each Sunday. But, you must pursue the purpose you feel called to engage in. I feel strongly you will continue to inspire so many just in a different way. Photography is about connection to something or someone... without that connection a photograph has no meaning to convey. The route you are taking now seems like another wonderful way for you to inspire others. I hope one day to meet you and thank you in person for how much you have helped me reestablish a connection with nature and to realize just how much that connection means to me and to my photography. So proud for you Kim! Wish you continued success in whatever ways you seek to help others sharing with them how establishing connections can profoundly impact every day. I know you will continue to inspire and bring peace and comfort to many. Peace, Hope, Joy & Love Donna

Good on you. A wise move as I believe and trust it will come full circle but in a very different way with other benefits for all who follow your channel. Blessings and all good wishes for your growth and expansion into these new ventures 🙏💕

I totally get it Kim, I have the same feelings its been several weeks since I created a video despite going out a couple of times to produce one, you have to do what is right for you, your audience will understand if you miss a week or two. Photography though I still do I go out as often as I can if a video develops then that's a bonus, photography helps get away from the stresses of daily life.

Kim, keep yourself in the forefront. KZbin has become a trap for many content creators as the monetary attraction to more and more, ultimately becomes a destructive addiction. Your tenderness and caring about your viewers says a lot about you. But in the end, you must decide upon the path you trek, not others. Best, Bill

Hi Kim, stay calm and content, follow your heart and stay true to who you are. Spent all of my life trying to please others doing what I felt would please them which caused me to lose myself so don’t be worrying about us. I really enjoy our Sunday mornings together but less is sometimes more eh? Take good care of you and enjoy the wonderful winter season. Best wishes Kim. Terryx

I've been following you for around three years now, and love the photographic content for sure, but really what has kept my attention is the personal journey you're on and you sharing of it has, for me, become the prime reason i watch. Yes it revolves around that passion but, you know, a video like this is just as interesting and engaging because like so many others I'm struggling to shape my life going forward and to find a positive path so that I'm not just trudging through life, it's so precious and not for the wasting. So, the podcast has become a really great weekly event to look forward to. The channel, and your journey are so inspiring. Follow your heart, Kim. I for one am going nowhere.

This is all part of your journey. I think taking more time to create your videos will give you the time to reflect more on the message you want to convey. Also it will stop the almost assembly line feeling and pressure that being a KZbin content creator can be. I will miss my regular Sunday get together with you but I am really excited to see your new more reflective and I’m sure immersive videos. If I live in the UK I would definitely sign up for one of your retreats.

Dear sweet Kim, Already, just 3 hours after release, the comments are overwhelmingly in support of you and what you are saying about the future of this gem that is so much more than a photo channel. Your videos are always very personal, reaching out to us, your viewers, from the depths of your experience with what feels like a conversation with each of us individually. I feel privileged to share your journey, however your channel evolves. Thank you for sharing it with me.
