Episode 260 - From Wales to Siberia and Beyond with Robin Smith
In this episode of the podcast, I speak with award-winning documentary director of photography Robin Smith.
We discuss Robin's journey from life in London to rural living in the lower Wye Valley, his experiences with fly fishing, the iconic River Wye and the Monnow, as well as the challenges of balancing family life with a passion for fishing and how it fits with his busy work schedule.
We look at his working life and the serendipitous moments that led him to filmmaking while he shares his proudest moments, and the challenges faced while filming elusive species like the Amur tiger in Siberia.
As well as natural history programs Robin has worked with Jeremy Wade and Robson Green too.
This is a slightly longer podcast than normal that looks at fly fishing but ends up being a conversation about a whole lot more.
