Publisher's Synopsis
For over two decades, legendary British photographer David Yarrow has been putting himself in harm's way to capture immersive and evocative photography of some of the world's most revered and endangered animal species. With his images heightening awareness of endangered species and also raising huge sums for charity and conservation, he is one of the most relevant photographers in the world today. Featuring his 150 most iconic photographs, David Yarrow Photography offers a truly unmatched view of some of the world's most compelling—and threatened—species. This collection of stunning images, paired with Yarrow's first-person contextual narrative, offers an insight into a man who will not accept second best in the relentless pursuit of excellence. David Yarrow Photography offers a balanced retrospective between his spectacular work in the wild and his staged storytelling work that has earned him wide acclaim in the fine art market. The intricacy and balance in these considered vignettes reinforces the work ethic in his research-based natural work. Yarrow rarely just "takes" pictures—he almost always "makes" them. Whether it be in the wilds of Alaska or an old saloon bar in Montana, there will always be a preconception of what he is looking for in the final work. The consistency of this approach sets him apart from others in the field. Yarrow's work will awaken our collective conscience and—true to form—he has agreed to donate all the royalties from this book to conservation.
