Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.00,0:02:13.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Photography carries a power that holds up
Dialogue: 0,0:02:13.00,0:02:17.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,under the relentless swirl of today's saturated, media world,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:17.00,0:02:19.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because photographs emulate the way
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.00,0:02:21.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that our mind freezes a significant moment.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:21.00,0:02:23.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Here's an example.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.00,0:02:25.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Four years ago, I was at the beach with my son,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.00,0:02:28.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and he was learning how to swim

Dialogue: 0,0:02:32.00,0:02:35.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But I turned away for a moment, and he got caught into a riptide
Dialogue: 0,0:02:35.00,0:02:36.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and started to be pulled out towards the jetty.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:38.00,0:02:41.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I can stand here right now and see,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:41.00,0:02:44.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as I go tearing into the water after him,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:44.00,0:02:47.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the moments slowing down and freezing into this arrangement.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:47.00,0:02:51.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I can see the rocks are over here.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:51.00,0:02:53.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There's a wave about to crash onto him.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:53.00,0:02:56.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I can see his hands reaching out,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:56.00,0:02:58.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I can see his face in terror,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:58.00,0:03:01.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,looking at me, saying, "Help me, Dad."
Dialogue: 0,0:03:02.00,0:03:04.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I got him. The wave broke over us.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:04.00,0:03:06.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We got back on shore; he was fine.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:06.00,0:03:08.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We were a little bit rattled.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:08.00,0:03:12.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But this flashbulb memory, as it's called,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.00,0:03:14.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is when all the elements came together to define
Dialogue: 0,0:03:14.00,0:03:19.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not just the event, but my emotional connection to it.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:19.00,0:03:21.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And this is what a photograph taps into
Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.00,0:03:24.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,when it makes its own powerful connection to a viewer.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:24.00,0:03:26.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now I have to tell you,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:26.00,0:03:28.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I was talking to Kyle last week about this,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:28.00,0:03:30.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that I was going to tell this story.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.00,0:03:32.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And he said, "Oh, yeah, I remember that too!
Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.00,0:03:34.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I remember my image of you
Dialogue: 0,0:03:34.00,0:03:36.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,was that you were up on the shore yelling at me."
Dialogue: 0,0:03:36.00,0:03:38.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Laughter)
Dialogue: 0,0:03:38.00,0:03:40.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I thought I was a hero.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:40.00,0:03:41.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Laughter)
Dialogue: 0,0:03:41.00,0:03:44.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:44.00,0:03:46.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this represents -- this is a cross-sample of
Dialogue: 0,0:03:46.00,0:03:50.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,some remarkable images taken by some of the world's greatest photojournalists,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:50.00,0:03:53.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,working at the very top of their craft --
Dialogue: 0,0:03:53.00,0:03:55.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,except one.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:55.00,0:03:58.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This photograph was taken by Dr. Euan Mason
Dialogue: 0,0:03:58.00,0:04:00.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in New Zealand last year,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:00.00,0:04:03.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it was submitted and published in National Geographic.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:03.00,0:04:05.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Last year, we added a section to our website called "Your Shot,"
Dialogue: 0,0:04:05.00,0:04:09.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where anyone can submit photographs for possible publication.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:09.00,0:04:12.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it has become a wild success,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:12.00,0:04:15.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,tapping into the enthusiast photography community.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:15.00,0:04:17.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The quality of these amateur photographs
Dialogue: 0,0:04:17.00,0:04:19.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,can, at times, be amazing.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.00,0:04:21.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And seeing this reinforces, for me,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:21.00,0:04:24.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that every one of us has at least one or two
Dialogue: 0,0:04:24.00,0:04:26.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,great photographs in them.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:26.00,0:04:29.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But to be a great photojournalist,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:29.00,0:04:31.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you have to have more than just one or two
Dialogue: 0,0:04:31.00,0:04:33.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,great photographs in you.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:33.00,0:04:35.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You've got to be able to make them all the time.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:35.00,0:04:38.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But even more importantly,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:38.00,0:04:41.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you need to know how to create a visual narrative.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:41.00,0:04:44.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You need to know how to tell a story.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:44.00,0:04:46.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I'm going to share with you some coverages
Dialogue: 0,0:04:46.00,0:04:49.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that I feel demonstrate the storytelling power of photography.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:51.00,0:04:54.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Photographer Nick Nichols went to document
Dialogue: 0,0:04:54.00,0:04:57.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a very small and relatively unknown wildlife sanctuary
Dialogue: 0,0:04:57.00,0:04:59.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in Chad, called Zakouma.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:00.00,0:05:02.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The original intent was to travel there
Dialogue: 0,0:05:02.00,0:05:04.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and bring back a classic story of diverse species,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:04.00,0:05:06.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of an exotic locale.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:06.00,0:05:08.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And that is what Nick did, up to a point.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:08.00,0:05:10.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is a serval cat.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.00,0:05:12.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He's actually taking his own picture,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:12.00,0:05:14.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,shot with what's called a camera trap.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:14.00,0:05:16.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There's an infrared beam that's going across,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:16.00,0:05:18.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and he has stepped into the beam and taken his photograph.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:18.00,0:05:22.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,These are baboons at a watering hole.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:23.00,0:05:25.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Nick -- the camera, again, an automatic camera
Dialogue: 0,0:05:25.00,0:05:27.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,took thousands of pictures of this.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:27.00,0:05:29.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And Nick ended up with a lot of pictures
Dialogue: 0,0:05:29.00,0:05:31.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the rear ends of baboons.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:31.00,0:05:32.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Laughter)
Dialogue: 0,0:05:32.00,0:05:35.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,A lion having a late night snack --
Dialogue: 0,0:05:35.00,0:05:37.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,notice he's got a broken tooth.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:40.00,0:05:43.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And a crocodile walks up a riverbank toward its den.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:43.00,0:05:45.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I love this little bit of water
Dialogue: 0,0:05:45.00,0:05:47.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that comes off the back of his tail.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:49.00,0:05:52.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But the centerpiece species of Zakouma are the elephants.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:52.00,0:05:56.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's one of the largest intact herds in this part of Africa.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:56.00,0:05:58.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Here's a photograph shot in moonlight,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:58.00,0:06:01.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,something that digital photography has made a big difference for.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:01.00,0:06:03.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It was with the elephants that this story pivoted.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:03.00,0:06:07.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Nick, along with researcher Dr. Michael Fay,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:07.00,0:06:09.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,collared the matriarch of the herd.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:09.00,0:06:11.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They named her Annie,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:11.00,0:06:13.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and they began tracking her movements.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:13.00,0:06:15.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The herd was safe within the confines of the park,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:15.00,0:06:17.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because of this dedicated group of park rangers.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:17.00,0:06:21.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But once the annual rains began,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:21.00,0:06:24.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the herd would begin migrating to feeding grounds outside the park.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:24.00,0:06:26.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And that's when they ran into trouble.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:27.00,0:06:29.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,For outside the safety of the park were poachers,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:29.00,0:06:33.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,who would hunt them down only for the value of their ivory tusks.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:34.00,0:06:36.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The matriarch that they were radio tracking,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:36.00,0:06:39.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,after weeks of moving back and forth, in and out of the park,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:39.00,0:06:41.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,came to a halt outside the park.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:41.00,0:06:46.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Annie had been killed, along with 20 members of her herd.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:49.00,0:06:51.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And they only came for the ivory.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:55.00,0:06:57.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is actually one of the rangers.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:57.00,0:07:00.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They were able to chase off one of the poachers and recover this ivory,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:00.00,0:07:02.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because they couldn't leave it there,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:02.00,0:07:04.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because it's still valuable.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:04.00,0:07:06.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But what Nick did was he brought back
