  • Join me as I spend a day exploring the Black Isle with my Friend Ailsa. We visit Chanonry Point, Cromarty, Avoch and Clootie Well.
    I am aware that this video is a bit all over the place, but I hope it shows off some of the stunning locations worth visiting in the area!

    Thanks again for a very interesting vlog! Chanonry Point looks like a great place to spend some time with the dogs while looking for the dolphins. We often passed not far by Chromarty when driving between Inverness and the north-west. Looks like we missed some interesting stuff ...

    @billonthehill9984 6 лет назад

    Hi Kim... Thank you for taking the time to put this out there... I am curious as to what a " bacon butty " is. It sounds tasty, whatever it is! An educated guess tells me: perhaps a biscuit with an egg & bacon inside or perhaps an English muffin with bacon, egg & cheese? Perhaps a side of hash browns with diced onions & peppers with a black coffee to top it off...
    Clootie Well, what a strange place... If ever I make it over, perhaps I will dip my feet in it for a spell... :-)
    Once again, very much enjoyed...

      A bacon butty is a bacon roll - so just bacon in a bread roll (not as exciting as it sounds - haha). Thank you!

    What a fascinating travelogue! I had to stop halfway through to look up more about Hugh Miller, who I'd never heard of before, so it was quite educational as well. (I'm still trying to figure out what that automobile air freshener tied to the trees near the well was all about - seeking healing for an ailing car, perhaps?) Anyway, looking forward to your Faerie Glen video!

    An unexpected Breakfast treat another Volog from Kim.It is interesting how ancient prechristian practices our the same on both sides of the Irish sea. Here in Ireland as well we have Holy Wells which are attributed to Saints or Ancient Celtic Pagan Gods that have healing powers and pieces of clothing our dipped in the water then tied to nearby
    branches. cant wait for the next vlog

    I have been to Chanonry Point a few times but never been lucky enough to see the Dolphins. Cromarty village looks nice. Clootie Well; I'm afraid I am more likely to track down a Clootie Dumpling.

    Hi Kim, I am really enjoying the series but I have one comment though. Your panning shots seem to be a bit hasty and uncertain at times. I don't know if it was you or your friend filming though. One of the things you can do to improve is before you press "record" to run your shot from beginning to end. This way you will know where to start and where to finish exactly. As for the speed it is not easy to maintain a perfect speed throughout especially when shooting handheld so this is where gimbals come to play. I know they are pricey but you will see great benefits with them. Otherwise you can use your tripod with a fluid video head to get this smooth panning action. Please excuse my remarks but I am seeing great content and I am sure you can make it even better.

    • @kimgrantphotography
      @kimgrantphotography  6 лет назад

      In this video it was my friend doing most of the pans and it was her first ever attempt. I would love a gimbal but can't afford the purchase just now - one day I hope!

  • @caitlinmiller

  • @Charlie_Toben
    @Charlie_Toben 6 лет назад

    Kim, another great video.
    I have a suggestion. When panning across a scene like the graveyard, you should pause the camera motion for a few seconds. It is easier for us to see the scene when it is static as opposed to constant motion. I had to pause the video several times to get a better look at the graveyard. So if you pan and pause, I think it would add to your already great cracking videos!

    So when are you going to offer some travel/photography tours? Am thinking a 1 day adventure is a good place to start. Meet at the location with cameras (and tripods in tow). [If Thomas Heaton and Simon Baxter can pull these things off, then so can you!]

    Hi Kim
    Nice video, I'm enjoying these road trip videos :)
    Looks to me that you need to clean the sensor.
    I guess that’s what you get with the lovely Scottish weather…
    Look and the top right corner, there a spot just before the clouds and two other in the corner.

      Michel van der Klooster As I've said in a recent vlog - photography will still be a big part of my channel (the next 2 vlogs are photography ones). If you don't enjoy the explore Scotland ones that's fine. The video titles will inform the viewer whether there is photography in it. Thanks for your comment 😊

    Yeah ok, I watched your video explaining the format change you've moved to. But basically no camera, no subscription from me. Just wandering around sight seeing isn't that much of a drawcard.
