PODCAST 126 : Kim Grant | Scottish Landscape Photog Talks Using Tripods Less, Favorite Spots & Aurora

Kirk Keyes Photog Adventure, Podcast

Todays Topic – 

We are joined by Scottish Landscape Photographer Kim Grant and she says something that we almost never hear from Landscape Photographers! “I don’t use my tripod all the time.” Learn from Kim’s fantastic and bright perspective on Landscape Photography. She discusses getting intimate portraits with the landscape and how to take advantage of a trip that might not be working out perfectly thanks to the weather.


Kim Grant | Scottish Landscape Photog Talks Using Tripods Less, Favorite Spots & Aurora

Speaking of getting intimate, there is an Easter Egg clip in the middle of this podcast from an old YouTube clip where Brendon said something he just didn’t quite… mean. 

Photographing Scotland with Kim Grant

Kim summarizes her favorite recommendations for those wanting to get out and photograph Scotland.

Photographing Northern Lights Way Up North

Kim reminds us just how cool the Aurora Borealis is and how cool it looks in Scotland. 

Scotland and the Sea

One of Kim’s favorite subjects is shooting the sea. West and North Scotland have shorelines with sea arches and triangular islands. It’s just amazing. She mentions Duncansby and John O’Groats as being awesome.
