This period saloon scene in Durango, Colorado was a big ask and I don’t think I could have made this a couple of years ago. I sense that I have learnt from my mistakes and my work has improved in dimly lit rooms like this one. This is so much more of a challenge than photographing an elephant in Kenya and the stakes are much higher. With the talent involved, we had at least $100,000 of daily rates on site, I guess it’s a case of “go big or go home”.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt is a high risk game, but this kind of shoot excites me more these days. There were so many moving parts and so many talented people not to let down. I was exhausted when I hit my bed, but I think we achieved what we set out to do - a character rich, wild west bar scene filling every inch of the frame. It is also not a scene in any bar, but the Diamond Belle saloon in Durango, Colorado.

This formula offers a closed end theatre from which to tell stories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe best urban example of this is perhaps La Salle Street in Chicago, which concludes with the Chicago Board of Trade. It is one of the most iconic views in any American city and, of course, Chicago is the showcase of American architecture. Sam Mendes made full use of this in “The Road to Perdition”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForrest Gump Point in Monument Valley is the American West at its majestic best and offers the same narrative of a journey’s end, albeit amidst the towering monoliths of Arizona.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut perhaps my favourite setting for this box office effect is the old mining town of Telluride resting at 9,000ft in the mountains of southwestern Colorado. I would contend that looking east down Main Street on a clear day is one of the most visually thrilling sights in all of America. There is a timelessness to the street with the grandest and most imposing of backdrops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, Telluride is now a glamorous Ski resort and my instincts were to shoot here in the winter; the mountain pops with the snow and if the weather cooperates, there can be the whitest of canvases to play with at street level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe problem for film makers is that the main street of Telluride can only be shut off from the public on a Sunday morning and only then for a couple of hours. We arrived on set a few days before and the weather got warmer and warmer. The snow in Main Street became slush and then disappeared totally. Saturday was spent sunbathing and cursing our luck, but then at about 5pm, storm clouds started to gather and by 8 pm, there was a full-on blizzard. We were overjoyed, but also concerned that if the storm continued until the morning, the mountain would be hidden and the moment lost. Without the mountain, there is no picture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 6.45 am, with the team in position, some breaks appeared in the cloud and then around 7.15 am, I had my moment.

I do not want to take myself too seriously and if I can use creativity as an antidote to the dangers of working in a literal straight jacket, I most certainly will.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trouble with being led by creative forces is that more often than not, we cannot find the narrative or the idea. It is the equivalent of writer’s block. I can go weeks without an authentic idea that holds promise and feasibility. Ideas don’t tend to come on cue, they often arrive in the middle of the night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis concept excited me from the day it was conceived. The Schmid Ranch, high up in the mountains of Colorado, was Tarantino’s location for The Hateful Eight and when we visited the location in early 2021, I saw the potential of building a set around which to work. The ranch saddles a truly spectacular amphitheatre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2021, there is no more contemporary or talked about asset to own than Bitcoin and the majority who own it, hold on to it with great conviction.

The lead character in this narrative was clearly not going to give up his asset easily - his loss would be someone else’s gain. I wanted to create a palpable sense of trespass and Ty Mitchell was the perfect character to play the role of the unyielding owner. He plays menace to perfection (though in real life he is a lovely man).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClearly, even in the Rockies in 1880, there were no sellers of Bitcoin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- David Yarrow\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Yarrow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39420150841415,"sku":"","price":99999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1213\/7518\/files\/David-Yarrow-sorrel-sky-gallery-Photographic-Print-No-Currency.jpg?v=1722459400"},{"product_id":"the-iron-horse-1","title":"The Iron Horse","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eSOLD OUT \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurango, Colorado, USA - 2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-collections-page__available-sizes\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-collections-page__available-sizes\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-collections-page__available-sizes-content\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-collections-page__available-sizes-content\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-collections-page__available-sizes-content\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-collections-page__content single-collections-page__content--visible\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-collections-page__content-container text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-collections-page__info\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe iron horse was as vital to the push west in America as the horse itself.

Ty Mitchell on the left is as authentic a Texan cowboy as they come and it is no surprise to us that he will soon be on set for three months with Martin Scorsese.

Handwarmers are such a wonderful invention.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis morning, up on the Durango \u0026amp; Silverton narrow gauge railroad, was one such occasion. The storm had cleared and was replaced by a cloudless sky and frigid temperatures.

In so doing he coined the term “Manifest Destiny”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere was a sense of unbridled purpose. Nothing would get in their way: forests would be cut; mountains carved and railroads built. 60 million bison were culled and replaced by cattle. Native Americans faced an existential crisis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome tribes, of course, fought, whilst others negotiated. There was heavy loss of life on both sides and there is irony now that this period of nation building is deeply uncomfortable for many current day Americans.

There was not much conflict and indigenous people mostly watched the railroad construction with a degree of fascination.

There was collaboration and often Native Americans offered protection from bandits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e19th century artists often depicted Native Americans as passive contextual narrative in railroad images; they are present but only to frame the story, not make the story.

The contrast between the two places is astonishingly stark, given that they are only three miles apart. Whilst Vail was styled by architects and designers on Alpine Bavaria, Minturn was styled by grizzly prospectors looking only as far as the next day. Vail was built 80 years after Minturn and when the contractors finished a day’s shift, they would head west to the Minturn Saloon. It was the place to go and 60 years on, despite some remodeling and ownership changes, it remains exactly that. All those who know Vail, know the Minturn Saloon. Rather like the Woody Creek Tavern in Aspen, it has fostered a strong patronage over the years and when the doors open at 3 pm, the bar fills at a speed to suggest that this is a special and loved destination. As always it is the people that make the places and this bar attracts a rich variety of clientele. Part of the saloon’s appeal was that it was directly accessible by skis, by car, by foot and by horse and it therefore became something of a vortex at the end of the day. By the 1970s, the Minturn not only attracted cowboys, builders and miners, but the new bohemian hipster crowd from over the hill. I am always drawn to the visual contrasts afforded to a filmmaker when a wild frontier destination is fused with glamour. This was the premise for this story. I saw a chance to play with the cold winter light that day and the result works pleasingly well in colour. Alessandra Ambrosio is one of the leading models in the world and it was a pleasure to work with her. She certainly killed her look and showed why she is at the top of her game.

Like any authentic wild west bar, there is a palpable sense of entering a building where bad things must have gone down. The walls are requested to talk by many an infatuated visitor, but they never do. In the Minturn’s case, that is portably just as\u2028well, as some of the older walls come from a brothel up the hill in Leadville. That fact alone begs so many questions. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere was no room for fillers in my cast at the saloon that day. It is a kind canvas for a storyteller but we needed some very strong faces to do justice to the joint. The Brazilian supermodel - Alessandra Ambrosio - is so easy to work with and such fun and Ty Mitchell - who has become Martin Scorsese’s morally loose cowboy for good reason.

The first stones of Vail were laid in 1962 making it the new kid on the block versus other Colorado ski towns such as Aspen, Breckenridge, or Steamboat Springs, which existed as 19th century mining towns prior to the establishment of their ski resorts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo begin with, the hotel was a “white elephant”, losing $100,000 every year until the faux Bavarian town matured into something of substance. But to borrow from Kevin Costner in Field of Dreams, “If you build it, he will come” and sure enough they came. The Lodge at Vail became the epicentre of a town that enjoyed growing popularity because of its abundant skiing and ease of travel. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe facade of the hotel has not changed much for several decades and I thought I could use that as a backdrop, in much the same way we did at Badrutt’s Palace in St Moritz, Switzerland in 2023. That photograph - which lent on the glamour of the 1970s in the resort - was hugely popular. There was an element of James Bond to it coupled with intense femininity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe formula worked and so this became the prompt for my shot outside the Lodge. After all, Vail became a place to be seen fairly quickly and by the mid 70s it was in vogue. Bohemian glamour was as prevalent in Colorado as it was in the Swiss Alps, maybe even more so.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWho better, therefore, than Alessandra Ambrosio - the Brazilian supermodel - to play the lead in this narrative.

This is one hell of a location and well worth the trip.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is only 18 miles, as the crow flies, from Aspen, but by road in winter it is a 202-mile journey. Such is the nature of the topography in Colorado. I think it is rather appropriate that there is such a distance in winter between the most famous ski resort in the world and the small community that is now dubbed “The last great Colorado ski town” because they couldn’t be more different. At the last census, only 1700 people claimed Crested Butte as home, but it is a known destination.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat both places have in common, however, is a mining past and with that goes dive bars that have stood the test of time. In Crested Butte, the infamous watering hole is Kochevar’s, established by Jacob Kochevar back in 1886. He seemed an interesting man with a keen eye for what his customers were looking for - women.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn its early life it was transformed from a brothel to a bowling alley, to a bar. Not many bars can lay claim to that level of adaptability at such an early stage in their history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut perhaps the bar is most famous for housing Butch Cassidy and the Wall Gang. Butch left his gun, which is now displayed proudly inside the saloon. No better place, therefore, to bring my bunch of morally impaired misfits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe did, however, acknowledge that the joint had history with femininity and what fun it was to bring one of the world’s most celebrated supermodels - Alessandra Ambrosio - to the bar at the end of the road.

A great deal has gone on in this building over the last 140 years and I sense that not much of it would have earned the participants an easy stairway to heaven. The irony is, that given the bar sits at an altitude of 9200 feet, the alleged climb would be considerably shorter than most. The saloon has the whiff of vice and is probably all the better for it. It was a place where only four generations ago, saloon girls and grizzly gold prospectors bettered each other’s lives night after night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1889, just one building down from the New Sheridan saloon, Butch Cassidy staged his first bank robbery.

Like the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley, it is a ground zero for selfies and maybe the location deserves a little better. It should elicit not just our phone’s attention, but a deep respect for Americana and the Final Frontier. The fact that a 150 years ago a village was built up here at 9,000 feet in Box Canyon is a telling insight into the determination of the first settlers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI have filmed on Main Street a few times, but never with a car and I sensed that there could be potential to tell a period story. In my creative processing I built in a few key components: a classic car; an empty and snow caked street with no signs of modernity and a model whose styling played to the era of the car.

At dawn it was only about 10 °F and the extreme cold amplified the heavy exhaust fumes from the 1955 Austin Healey.

I think I know it better than my train journey in the UK between London and our home in Devon. Over the years this familiarity has allowed us to fully commit to our craft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing is possible without the support of the owners of the steam train and the narrow-gauge railroad; the management and then the train drivers themselves.\u003cbr\u003eIt is a team effort and each year the level of mutual trust has circled upwards and allowed us to push boundaries creatively. We choose to film here in the winter, as low temperatures help with the breadth of visuals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the pressured steam is trapped between the engine and the towering escarpment, it can only escape upwards and climb the cliff face. At 7000 ft in the winter, the steam will then fall back to earth as sleet or snow. There is then the possibility that at this most dramatic of settings, the train is just a bit part in a chaotic and otherworldly scene of ice, snow, steam and smoke. We have learnt how to momentarily create a little bit of hell high up in this formidable canyon and who better to bring into this narrative than a couple of uncompromising train robbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wider community of Durango has been so supportive of us over the years and these projects would not be possible without the help of many locals.

We often fail in new ideas, but better that than never to try.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCamera capability in low light has evolved constantly since the beginning of my career but employing slow shutter speeds when filming moving subjects is still\u003cbr\u003eas bad a combination as it has always been. The maths has not changed and it remains a low percentage gig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bonus of shooting at night in a location like this is that the stark lighting not only adds drama, it allows for unwelcome distractions to be too dark for the eye to see. The rich blacks suit train stations and many of the great movie sets in such locations have been filmed at night, no more so than with Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe steam and smoke emitted from an early day’s steam train are most certainly a gift to filmmakers as they offer an extra character into the narrative and allow for isolation of the protagonist. We have a fondness for anything in a picture that defies gravity and I knew that this idea had potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cowboy and the iron horse were unlikely bedfellows in the push west and most of the time they enabled each other and collaborated. But in the loosely governed final frontier, there were no certainties and danger lurked at every stopping point. I wanted to evoke not only the sense of journey but also the implicit danger. To travel in this era was to engage with the random walk of luck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e~ David Yarrow\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Yarrow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41506912862279,"sku":"","price":50000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1213\/7518\/files\/David-Yarrow-sorrel-sky-gallery-Photographic-Print-MIDNIGHT-EXPRESS.png?v=1741035261"}],"url":"https:\/\/sorrelsky.com\/collections\/colorado-david-yarrow.oembed?page=5","provider":"Sorrel Sky Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
