I worked at National Geographic for 14 years. I've worked with some of the most accomplished photographers in the world. Steve is my favorite. His colors and his photographs of people are extraordinary.
To bad that a long time ago NG photographers went from being photojournalist to visual artist.
" I worked for National Geographic for 14 years" blur blur blur, look who's here lol
Wow, CBS doing real journalism. Steve McCurry is an inspiration.
I've been a hobbyist photographer all my life - even now going towards my 80s. Starting from films to digital era, I followed the growth of my kids and their kids (my grandchildren), travel, street photography, macros, etc. For me, this was also a career in life's enjoyment. I'm looking forward and not looking back. And I'm doing it my way.
He’s sympathetic, conscious, kindness & empathy shine in his work.. to this day..
My altime favorite photographer. I admire his works.
Wow, just wow! Loss of words.
An amazing artist ❤
I am blessed to watch this videos
Probably the BEST or most FAMOUS photographer of our life time. I'm trying to colect his all books. Unfortunately some are out of market. Those are available I collectde. They are not only expensive, but also so large in size, it's difficult to enjoy on one's lap. You have to have the entire table to see one book. Smallest probably the recently published "Animals"!!! Simply AMAZING works!!!
I adore this guy's works ❤❤❤❤❤
absolutely amazing. Inspiring!
Great photos and great photography. Being a photographer is important, more photography stories please! 😊
More stories on photojournalists.
Ein Grossmeister, der mich motiviert; danke!
Steve McCurry’s photograph of the Afghan Girl is arguably the Mona Lisa of photography.
Very well said, only name of that photograph could be "Monalisa" by photography! No doubt.
Leonardo spent more than 10 years creating the Mona Lisa. There are better pictures.
Amazing
He’s becoming one of my favorite photographers, an inspiration

He is one of greats. It is curious he says "it's not about the light" because it absolutely is with his images. He might not *think* the light is important, but that informs a lot of what he does. And he does it just about better than anybody else alive today.
Steve would know better than anyone what his pictures are about🤡
Living God of Photography
I had a lot of respect for Steve McCurry and his work, but the revelation that some of his images were altered really changed my view. As a photojournalist, his role was to capture truth, and manipulating images goes against the ethical standards that should be upheld in the field.
In case you are a younger person, what they are looking at here are called slides, most likely Kodachrome. This was called photographic film (usually 35mm in the field) which came in rolls that were inserted into the back of the camera. After exposure to light, the film had to be developed by a lab before you saw the results of what you had shot. And no, I’m not 100 years old.
*The GOAT* 🐐
Awesome :)
❤❤❤❤
Steve McPhotoshop
lol. Yeah, I guess that’s why he”s no longer classified as a photojournalist. There’s some other term he uses now.
watching this while Lightroom imports photos...
Wow, My comment was deleted? Thanks CBS
The old MFK ruined his life time reputation by tampering his picture with PS.
I'm surprised that you didn't bring up how he inappropriately pressured the Afghani girl to take of her hijab so that he could take that iconic photo. Such a disgrace!
I worked with Steve during my tenure at National Geographic, and during the time when he went back and shot Sharbat the second time. First of all, he is a very quiet, humble man. Did you hear him say that taking a photo of someone requires you get them to trust you? Second, the first shot was taken on her escape route over the mountains. She was not pressured. Neither was she pressured the second time. It was in fact a dangerous situation as she lived in the most conservative, poor, Taliban enclaves in Afghanistan. He and his team of producers (there was a TV crew with him as they searched for her), negotiated with her male family members and he was allowed to take the photo while there was a female crew with him, and he did so quickly. The males were given money to help them survive on a continuing basis after she was found and so too, she was helped to escape. Unless you were there, unless you were the photo editor, perhaps you should rethink your ill informed comments.
give it a rest...please...and of is spelled off...!
@@MsL-y4c You weren't there either. Strange that obvious fact eludes you. Perhaps you should rethink your comments.
Let's see your irrefutable proof that he pressured her.
NG was never a magazine photographed but photojournalist. It’s a travel magazine photographed by visual artist.
