Episode 067: David Yarrow, It's Not All Black and White

David Yarrow is a fine art photographer, conservationist and author. David is best known for his iconic monochrome wildlife photography, as well as for capturing celebrity portraits including Cindy Crawford and Cara Delevingne. David has many boasts, from taking the historic image of Maradona at the 1986 World Cup to his work in wildlife conservation. He calls himself  ‘an artist’ but is also emphatically a businessman, and his commercial success has been built on an earlier career in banking. In this episode Matt speaks to David about his life as a photographer, his process for generating ideas, and how failure has been an integral part of his work.  Support this show <a href="http://supporter.acast.com/the-adventure-podcast" rel="payment" target="_blank">http://supporter.acast.com/the-adventure-podcast</a>.
