Gorgeous portraits of the world's vanishing people

YouTube Description:

When Jimmy Nelson traveled to Siberia to photograph the Chukchi people, elders told him: "You cannot photograph us. You have to wait, you have to wait until you get to know us, you have to wait until you understand us." In this gorgeously photo-filled talk, join Nelson's quest to understand — the world, other people, himself — by making astonishing portraits of the world's vanishing tribes and cultures.

Beautiful pictures, and great talk. Too bad there's the controversy about how he portrays some of the indigenous people, or the implication that their cultures are all slipping into oblivion.
