Maradona in 1986 being my initial prompt. But it was probably way later in 2014 when I took the picture Mankind in a cattle camp near Yirol in South Sudan that my life changed. To borrow from Eddie Cantor “it took me 30 years to be an overnight success”. There have been many failures along the way.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I had recently considered returning to South Sudan to re-photograph that exact location, but a combination of Covid and an uptake in conflict in the country made that impractical. I also always have reservations on reshooting any previous set, it can hint at a lack of original thought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Meanwhile, we had an idea. Our anthology to the “Wild West” - now in its six month of production - had allowed us to become familiar not just with the topography of much of the west, but with many cowboys and ranchers whom we now consider friends. The cowboy is integral to the enduring myth of the Wild West and no more so than in Texas, where the great cattle drives were first initiated. No state played a greater role in the trail drive era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e West Texas and South Sudan ostensibly don’t have much in common, but from a filming perspective there are some similarities. The land is flat and arid and in both locations the cattle are special. The horns of the cattle looked after by the Dinka in South Sudan, are magnificent, but the Texas Longhorn is no poor cousin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e With the help of two renowned Texan working cowboys - Craig Carter and Ryon Marshall - we spent last week filming near Valentine, not far from the Mexican border. I knew what I was looking for; a frame with depth; so as in South Sudan, I brought a ladder and a frame with contextuality and breadth; so, I knew that any lens with magnification would be a big error (it normally is anyway when a sense of place is integral to the creative vision).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I settled on a standard lens, but we had a problem, the dust being kicked up by the drives was intense. If the wind took the dust towards me, there was not just the inability to film, there was a danger of the thundering herd not seeing me. On one initial drive, they came out of the dust cloud just yards from my ladder. Not something I would recommend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e So, we worked out the formula, we would shoot against the light and with the herd directly downwind from me. As we rose at 4 am, we prayed the local weather forecast was accurate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The cowboys, led by Ryon Marshall, were magnificent and after 72 hours we got the job done. The closing down party in the desert last Thursday night was something I will always remember. Great food, the most engaging company and, of course, country music. My team left with a warm glow and a real sense of connection with the cowboy culture down there. We can all learn something from it. You gotta love Texas.","brand":"David Yarrow","offers":[{"title":"81 x 170 cm (image size) | 119 x 208 cm (framed size)","offer_id":43923303694423,"sku":"DY-PH-The Thundering Herd-81 x 170 cm (image size) | 119 x 208 cm (framed size)-AR-SI-Nr. 3","price":26500.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"122 x 257 cm (image size) | 160 x 295 cm (framed size)","offer_id":43923303727191,"sku":"DY-PH-The Thundering Herd-122 x 257 cm (image size) | 160 x 295 cm (framed size)-AR-SI-N\/A","price":31800.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/0553\/files\/yarrow_david_214_The_Thundering_Herd_119x208_fa923f19-d1aa-4080-87a7-6eb0b232bc7e.jpg?v=1780581485"},{"product_id":"david-yarrow-capri","title":"Capri","description":"Capri\u003cbr\u003eCapri, Italy - 2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLa Fontelina is the most celebrated beach club on the most fabled holiday island in the world.

I got lucky on the day of the final and the photograph of him, arms aloft with the trophy, remains one of the most important of my life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Neapolitans had gotten even luckier when their debt-ridden club bought Diego Maradona from Barcelona in the summer of 1984. It was an enormous financial gamble for a club teetering on insolvency and history now looks back fondly on the courage of the owner Corrado Ferlaino. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is impossible to overstate the importance of Maradona to the city - no sportsman has ever offered such level of redemption and hope to an otherwise disadvantaged community and when Maradona’s Napoli won the Italian title in 1987, his legacy was secure.  To this day, many Neapolitans have two paintings above their bed - Jesus Christ and Maradona.  It was an intoxicating love affair between man and city masterfully articulated in the Asif Kapadia 2019 documentary “Maradona”, which briefly features my photograph from 1986.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor a generation now, the giant murals of Maradona, dotted around Naples and the neighbouring towns, have become tourist destinations in themselves. They are part of the aesthetic fabric of this most magical and raw part of Europe. Diego was so much more than just a sportsman; he was a modern-day saviour in this god-fearing and deeply spiritual place.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy idea was to use a Maradona mural as a background layer in a celebration of life in the wider Naples area. The styling and props were necessarily skewed towards the time when Maradona still played for Napoli, and I sensed the need for a busy street narrative. I wanted to evoke a very definite sense of place. There is nowhere quite like it in the world.","brand":"David Yarrow","offers":[{"title":"94 x 165 cm (image size) | 132 x 203 cm (framed size)","offer_id":43923446792279,"sku":"DY-PH-Diego-94 x 165 cm (image size) | 132 x 203 cm (framed size)-AR-SI-N\/A","price":29680.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true},{"title":"142 x 249 cm (image size) | 180 x 287 cm (framed size)","offer_id":43923446825047,"sku":"DY-PH-Diego-142 x 249 cm (image size) | 180 x 287 cm (framed size)-AR-SI-N\/A","price":33920.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/0553\/files\/yarrow_david_450_diego_132x203_2ab34cb2-0214-4704-95b6-112a8b0ad940.jpg?v=1780585131"},{"product_id":"david-yarrow-bellissimo","title":"Bellissimo","description":"Bellissimo\u003cbr\u003eNaples, Italy – 2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeapolitans are intensely proud people - “Vedi Napoli e poi muori” goes the local proverb (see Napoli and die).

A road with a steep incline is almost always good news.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the first 58 years of my life, I never traveled to Procida and then, in the space of eight months, I went there five times.

Anthony Minghella was drawn to it and made full use of it in The Talented Mr Ripley and in the same era, Il Postino: The Postman was shot almost entirely on the island.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI like the island, not just for its worn facades or the artisan life that defines it, but because there is a strong sense of place in almost every location. The still camera can capture that vibe in a single frame, which is quite rare and always encourages me.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis little street - used by Minghella - caught my eye because the camera lens must point up as the road is on a steep slope. This allows for a wider narrative behind the subject and if we travel to somewhere as special as Procida, we want to include as much context as possible. A road with a steep incline is almost always good news.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the first 58 years of my life, I never traveled to Procida and then, in the space of eight months, I went there five times.
