I love how he is so honest about reality and doesn't sugar coat it. Makes me want to get out there an take photos in a totally different point of view.
This is incredible. Living what you talk in a world that barely listens anymore. The mama bear and the Rhino. Stunning moments. I wish you well, sir. You are an inspiration to an incoming and outgoing generation.
At 3:23, when Yarrow is talking about immersion in photography, the producer or editor cuts to a close-up shot of Yarrow to let us experience it immediately. Well done.
I don't see David breaking a limb from a tree, or cutting it down just to get the shot. David Photographers ethics is akin to Professional Cavers. You disturb nothing, you leave nothing. A true Naturalist, and Artest. Wow.
beautiful speaking by a man who does so many good things and makes generational photographs. Thank you for this video I have learned so much from David that i am now drawn to learn as much as I can from this man.
I've been traveling through Asia for the past year and took 25,000+ images. After going through all of them I am left with around 7,000. They are not all good. Of course not. I would have probably less than 100 that I really consider "good". But the rest are good enough to creatively show part of the journey and serve to help document where I've been. Also, I don't think you can get better without taking a lot of bad pictures. But his perspective definitely honed my attention when looking at my images now. I'm mentally sorting them into bins of less good than I thought and what needs to be done to be better and to produce better work more consistently.
I realize this was in 2017, but I'm just watching it now on Christmas Day, 2019. I absolutely love David Yarrow's photography. I also love it when he said that you can't blame the poachers. You have to blame the end-users. I feel this way about the fur industry as well. To inflict such cruelty just for vanity is atrocious. However, I was disappointed when Mr. Yarrow made the comment that he got a bunch of chickens and stood in a cage to get the photos of the tigers. That is wildlife baiting and I am totally against that. I would think that someone of his expertise and character would not have to steep so low. He talks about how we all share this planet. Well, those chicken's lives meant something to them. So to do it for what he calls art and/or his ego is extremely disappointing and lowers my admiration for the man. I'm sure he doesn't care what I think. But maybe, just maybe, my comments mean something to someone else.
kinderliving1 ya, tigers don’t need food. What an idiotic sentiment. He chooses to take photos while they’re being fed and you snowflake out.... stop breathing, kthx
My perception from this show is, that most of David's shootings are, other than the wildlife, staged! Montana, Legos, Detroite, etc. Like model shooting, not candid or not street style.
It's really beyond your pea-brain, isn't it? He's an extraordinary artist that has put in years of incredible effort into getting where he's at. What have you done so far?
