Capturing the splendor and very soul of what remains wild and free in our world through incredibly intimate-close enough to touch-portraits, Wild Encounters chronicles legendary photographer David Yarrow's photographic exploits in the field.Driven by a passion for sharing and preserving the Earth's last great wild cultures and species, Yarrow is as much a conservationist as a photographer and artist.His work has transcended wildlife photography, and is now collected and shown as fine art in some of the most famed galleries around the world. Yarrow goes Pole-to-Pole, continent-to-continent- mountain to tundra to primordial jungle-inviting us to truly connect with a subject that we mistakenly think we have seen before.Yarrow takes the familiar- lions, elephants, tigers, polar bears-and makes them new again by creating iconic images that deliberately connect with us at a highly emotional level.
