- Part 1 (of 2) exclusive youpic.com/ home films in which we explore David Yarrow's photography of animals and his unique methods. In part 2 (coming in January 2016) we will show his photography of tribes and people and discover the story behind one of his most famous images “Mankind”. David has built an unrivalled reputation for capturing the beauty of the planet’s remote landscapes,tribes and endangered animals. He is now widely regarded as the UK’s best selling fine-art photographer of his genre. His Encounter Collection, was exhibited in November 2013 in Hong Kong, New York and London’s Saatchi Gallery. For David, time, commitment and patience are the foundation stones of taking great photographs.
This is probably the best photography I have seen in my entire life
lookup Sebastian Salgado. Same feeling you get photographically. I would say Sebastian is #1, this guys images a close #2
Swanand Soman - also check Mark and his Osprey revelations... exquisite images never before seen...
I concur, exactly the same feelings.
Swanand Soman Yes , I am left breathless
I was just getting ready to post something just like this!!!
There are so many pretentious, self inflated photographers on CZcams. This guy is the real thing.
What he says about how man good pictures he took really shook me. He has another level of expectation and I think that's great!
Well said.
I agree they lack emotion and they mostly care about post edits and making it look cool. Cartier, Avedon and Ansel Adams brings emotion,thought provoking and interesting photographs that's all about the wonderful details. David's elephant picture is gorgeous
Most of them lack artistic vision and more on post editing than composition.
Not most, almost all of them look the same, that's the problem. Same lenses, same focal length, same angle...boring really. But hey, it takes some serious balls to photograph a momma bear close up, with her cubs, with a 24mm lens. And what a talent on top of those cojones!
That's how animals should be shot. With a Camera, not a Gun. Beautiful photographs, and an amazing photographer.
Unless your hunting for food.....
Think about it the next time you're eating meat from the supermarket because those poor animals never had a chance let alone a good life or a quick death.
@@DS-kn4bs I don't eat meat.
@@shotbycooper4467 you should it's good for you, tasty, and God gave it to us with thanks giving.
Besides I'm sure you kill animals by porches. You know cloths, cars, oil, gas Etc.
@@DS-kn4bs there's no such thing as God
@@shotbycooper4467 Soy Boy
I’m a retired photojournalist and have never really been that into wildlife photography. I’m also rarely impressed with photography I see on social media. Your work is absolutely stunning! I look forward to following you and seeing more.
I have met David Yarrow last week. He is an inspirational person and photographer. His photos convey emotion and rises above 'let me show you what an elephant looks like".
This guy should be world famous - way above the usual Nat.Geo. standard or any other wildlife photography. Fantastic.
I think he is world famous
Excuse me but;National geographic photographers can be just as great,and I think they shouldn't be belittled because there a bit unknown.What matters is they are being themselves and enjoying life (It is my dream to become a ng photographer!)
Nat Geo photographers have stunning photos
@@SeamlessTeam he absolutely is! He's amazing
He is world famous in wildlife photography.
First time I hear a pro admit on the small amount of good to great photos he can capture within a time frame. It's like most are ashamed of admitting they fail most of the time. But this guy is honest about it. Now I feel better about my fails.
Getting everything to come together on that many dimensions is like playing Vegas. Every once in a while you hit gold.
But man, those 6 shots a year look out of this world. Stunning photos. I do weddings so I have to produce hundreds of good images, but its usually out of those 2000-3000 shots I do on any gig, that I really like maybe 2 or 3 photos.
I started doing weddings really cheap and reminding the clients that Im still green so there might be stuff I will miss, and they had no problems with it because the photos I did produce were miles better than anyone in my price range, which admittedly was pretty cheap.. It doesn't take long before you get the inner workings of weddings. The rest of it is all your ability, and yes, its considerably harder than people think it is. Just like everything else, if you try to do it proper. I sometimes pull 22 hrs shifts when there is a lot driving involved.
And people are actually amazed when Im dripping in sweat while trying to make the shots.
It is physically challenging on top bad weather etc. But hey, it pays good, and I only shoot people anyways, so Im not complaining really. That new lens or camera body is not going to buy itself.
@@Qlicky - I'm that way myself. You go on a shoot, and take tons of photos. Many of them are good, yes. But there's that small, small few (that being low single digits) that you feel are breathtaking.
If you're on a shoot where you got a ton of 'great' pictures, then odds are it was just too easy of an event.
Qlickyb,
Astonishing. I've been a pro shooter for over 30 years, and am not worthy to remove this man's lens cap.
He has the latest gear, and courage..A bitnof photoshop I would say and that s all.. He has money..I cannot afford the cheapest lens he has...So I stay loyal to my Nikon FM2, and My Yashica D.... His images are irreal..Have you seen the elefants ? Nothing close to reality....I could do the same thing if I had the money...
@@zos09 A bad workman always blames his tools
@@minuteman4394 Hahaha... Who blames his tool dude ? I will die with these two cameras... 😂 I simply do not like fake photoshopped images. I cannot shoot pictures like that, and neither you, because we don t have enough money..Or traveling to sahara is free of charge ? 😂😂😂
Peter Lewis lol don’t talk down on yourself like that 2 legends can coexist u know
It’s not too often I find a video on CZcams where I can sit and watch every second of it and not be intrigued. This here is one of this videos, and I’m glad I found this.
This photographer is so high above the professional standard that his calm demeanor and personality reflects superstar status in the art form.
Absolutely, ridiculously, unbelievably good photographs... I don't believe I have ever seen a series of photos so perfect, one after the other, in my life. Huge respect for David Yarrow!
Not only is David Yarrow probably the greatest living wildlife photographer, he is also a phenomenal naturalist.
The exceptional standard of David Yarrow's work just shows up 99% of photographers out there. Awesome, brilliant, majestic and the real deal.
AWESOME!
Never seen so many fabulous, rich shots.....and today, i was photographing ......slugs...lol.
Tame slugs, or attack slugs?
Don't forget to get the camera down to eye level with the slug, or your photo is worthless.
Jillian Dennis - Nothing wrong with photographing a slug. At least you can be sure it will never attack you nor will it eat your camera - Lol
I hear lense slime is a real problem with your chosen subjects. Beware.
Taking a photo of a slug is better that my stepping on a slug tonight while capturing the wild Harvest moon near condo apartment buildings or above some tree foliage. I was fearless. LOL.
his photos also reflect his personality, badass!
Love from kenya 🇰🇪 Amboseli is truly breathtaking, highly recommend.
Incredible timing. Incredible photographs. WOW!
Jeebus, what a photographer. Every capture speaks to you.
This pictures are absolutely insane ,well done Mr.
Insane prices .. $ 13,000 per print
I enjoyed every single second of this video ! Well done Sir, amazing work, amazing photography !!
I don't think I've watched a video before with so many "oh wow's" involved. Fabulous work :)
Steve, you videos and photos are always great, but this was a whole new level of exceptional. Thank you for posting/sharing, I really enjoyed this one a great deal.
To say that the images are absolutely stunning is one of my biggest understatements. Absolutely stunning !!!
Thank you David Yarrow, this man is who the word AWESOME was made for!
Watching this on a large screen, I almost feel like I'm going to fall into the picture.
Amazing work. Just amazing.
I watch this video again and again and I am never done with it. This video of your's inspires me a lot...
Outstanding video, Mr. David has motivated me to try something new as a young/new photographer. Thank you.
Stunning! Each picture made me gasp with admiration. Thank you, David Yarrow.
This is a perfect example to show that photography is not about what you shoot with, but how you shoot.
Stunning photos! Great learning here! Thanks for this video!
What a inspiration!!! Thanks you David god bless.
Mr. Yarrow is an Amazing photographer . love your work
WoW! ..I barely blinked to not miss anything! That was strong and beautiful! 👏
This is the part I love about photography, the art.
Wow. I'm lost for words. These images are sensational. You are without doubt a talented man and know wildlife inside out. Loved every second of this video. Thank you.
My god, each one of those shots is breathtaking
This is the best wild life photography I have ever seen.
Black and white is definitely an art form. This is some amazing photography.
some of the best wildlife shots ever seen. mind blowing !!
The best I've seen I would have watched this video 30 times, I'm a landscape guy this made me want to attempt a bit of wildlife stuff.
This interview was so impactful! So much knowledge from this guy!
I visited Kenya this past June but didn’t get photos as amazing as these. I feel as if I have to go back now for sure.
Alex S. When you come... look me up I have an Airbnb . Search for Casa Zosi.
David Yarrow you just blew me away... Stunning images from a humble, non pretentious and world aware photographer... Thank you for sharing
really love the perspective and results from David. Being this candid and honest about his approach is refreshing.
Just bloody stunning thank you for these
OMW, so inspiring. I'm in total awe.
I am so glad I found your content..AMAZING IMAGES...I have never heard of someone getting so close to these animals and get such great content...
what an amazing photographer. just stunning.
Happy teacher’s day. Thanks for being my teacher. 🙏
i bought my first DSLR 2 months ago exactly and i have taken 2 good picture. that man is a big inspiration
I'm leaving for Africa again tomorrow. Thanks for the inspiration David, your photography is stunning!
This guy is awesome, very dramatic photos, love his style. A brave man!
That shoot of the elephant queue was astonoshing and dangerous at the same time since he risked his camera putting it on the soil and somehow playing out with the possibility an elephant smashes the camera with its foot! omg! Along with Michele Bavassano, you both are unique!
You risk a lot when you make an exposure, sometimes your gear and sometimes your body. But in the end, it is worth it!
Absolutely amazing pictures! If I could take just one of these pictures and edit it the same way I would feel my photography journey complete. Well done!
He has incredible, beautiful photos and unique compositions.
The bit that pisses me off is he puts the camera on the ground and just hits the remote shutter button and still creates such great shots. .
Exceptionally talented and most honest photographer The David Yarrow.
Amazing pictures David!
The best advice I ever got in my photography career was to go with fixed lenses, as they will make you work/walk for good photos. And this guy took that to another level. Stunning stuff.
Fixed focal length, as in not zoom or like you said: prime lenses.
It was the best review with photographer I ever saw! I never heard about David Yarow but from now I'm a huge fan of this person and his work. Thanks YouPic for this review!
What I admired the most about Mr. Yarrow is the simplicity of his approach. By studying the animal to be photographed and position yourself in the correct moment and time have been the true essence of Mr. Yarrow photographic skills. His compositions speak for themselves. Not only are they stunning but also inspiring.
His photographs are just amazing! Hope to get that good or close to it at least someday.
Best wildlife photos that I've seen in a long time.
Simply, stunning photography.
Inspirational video. Makes me wanna go out and push the boundary’s. David is 1 of if not the best widelife photographer in my opinion
Oh dear... That was spectacular! I think these were some of the best photographs I've ever seen.
Just tremendous photos. Truly amazing.
There should be a love button for this video and photographer!!
Wow, the picture at 6:11 made my jaw drop and heart skip a beat!
Me too, I bet his did too when he retrieved the camera. Absolutely one of the most stunning shots I've ever seen
Incredible valuable Monologue. You hear years of experience put together in simple words. And these images. Second to none. Thanks for creating this!
wow! This man is incredibly gifted!
WOW, what a great video. Just awesome pictures and fantastic to hear Yarrow's commentary.
The b/w photos are very dramatic, beautiful !
Such a good video. Glad to have this kind of teacher. Such great images that I hope I can get this good eventually!
November 2019 - I had a week's vacation in Vancouver (I live near London in the UK) and much to my delight there was an exhibition of David Yarrow's work in the city. Wow ! I consider myself very fortunate to have been there at just the right time (5 o'clock, somewhere)
THis is one side of wildlife photography I'd not seen much of. Absolutely gobsmacking shots!!
mind. BLOWN. thank you.
I’ve just discovered you! Wow! These shots are truly memorable. Thank you!
What in the world, his photos are amazing!
That was inspiring actually. Didn't see that coming. The group of elephants and the galloping giraffe... wow.
Out of all the great wildlife photographers, you inspire me the most
If I could get shots nearly as good as yours I would be very happy indeed
Blown away by these images! Incredible shots - if I managed to take just one like these I would be happy amateur!!
My God! And I never heard of Yarrow before ...what astounding talent..thank you
It is so good i started to cry.
These pictures are really really great. Best ones I've seen , no bs.
If you get a chance to see one of David's shows in person, do it!! His work is magnificent small, but when you're in front of one his handmade 40x60 master prints, they knock you right on your fanny. His work is the first I've seen since Peter Beard's that really moved the art forward. Impeccable composition, contrast, lighting, tonal range, printing and of course truly remarkable tributes to earth's most charismatic mega-fauna and environments.
I have just learnt so much just watching this. Thank you David
This guy makes hundreds of thousands, but, to me, he is the only photographer who deserves it. I saw his site and wondered how he could possibly get photos like that. Now I know. I will take his advice to heart and hopefully I will get a photo that maybe, just maybe, is a fraction as good.
You should check out a guy named Clark Little. He takes excellent photographs in the ocean. He does great work. He, like Yarrow, also puts himself at risk to get those shots.
@@Anon54387 Wow, you're right Anon54387. I've never seen photos like that. I especially enjoyed the sea turtle pics.
Omg I want to work beside this guy to learn everything from him!!! I love love love his style!!!
Spotted jaguar looking up is profound. Crystal clear. Elecitric. Unique photography, Mr. Yarrow . Thank you sir! With this kind of vision, you certainly don’t need more than 6 frames per year.
Wow....just magical.👍
Stunning and Beautiful together! In reality, one photo says more than a 1000 words! My compliment David Yarrow!
I love his work. At 8:08 it looked like he was having a plumber's moment while photographing the polar bears. He allows his humanity to come through. "It is what it is" when getting the shot. Much respect.
Being a photographer myself, you deserve my admiration. I know it is a lot of hard work and a bit of luck. I hope that you are enjoying a lot!!! 📷
omg, didnt realize, how beautiful such photogrpahy can be done. man, hats down!
Bugger me, that is sharp! Glorious.
I am speechless. Amazing and grand are the two words that came to my mind with my limited vocabulary while watching this video. Absolute gem of a photographer. His work speaks rather shouts and not the gear.
Wow! Just...wow! The word awesome is rarely used justifiably, but this really was awesome. Love the vision, the talent, the art, the humanity, the commercialism. Thank you so much.
These are breathtakingly beautiful, strong and evocative photos. So much to learn from what he says. Not just for aspiring photographers.
Breathtaking...
Incredible photographs. A truly talented artist.
Absolutely superb...... Raw brilliance.... So inspiring.
