The Blog

I was underground at Vale’s Coleman Mine just outside of Sudbury Ontario to update their photography for their marketing materials and photo library.

Once the shotcrete sprayer is in operation I have a few seconds to capture the image before the location fills up with particles covering the whole scene in airborn dust. With a slower shutter speed I removed my camp lamp so it would not add any ambient light to my scene which caused a single ray of light to be captured in front of the operator.
