Heavy Duty Mechanics Seem Small
While working on some ultra sized heavy equipment these mechanics look minuscule in comparison. Of course, I myself don’t look that big either (bottom pic)

Awhile back I had the pleasure of meeting Paul Ross of Zeebestthirts.ca who creates and sells industry shirts to raise money for Sick Kids (See my post here). Along with his designer www.tonyhogue.com and a few of my images the next creation of the “Canadian Miners” Tshirt was born. Check out Paul’s site, read up on Paul Ross and his cause and support Sick Kids while purchasing some custom mining apparel.
(please don’t email me to purchase the tshirts as I do not sell them via this website. Goto www.zeebesttshirts.ca to purchase)
I had the pleasure of photographing some products from Jannatec (www.jannatec.com) awhile back including their famous Johnny Light. I am sure a lot of you are familiar with their products especially those of you working underground in Ontario. After photographing and playing with the different lights I had to have “The One” light as part of my PPE.

As I was photographing this area of the mine site I noticed a break in the clouds coming towards us. I waited about 7 minutes for it to pass over giving me some extra light on the machines below.

Yesterday I volunteered some time to photograph each team at the Strokes For Hope golf tournament held at Timberwolf Golf Course in Sudbury Ontario. The NCRF hosted another great event on what looked like a cloudy stormy start but ended up with clear skies and sunshine by the end of the day. Pictured below is the Miners For Cancer Team.

Another single portrait I created while on assignment at an Ontario mine. It takes just a few minutes to setup and create an individual portrait like this but this miner will have this image for a very long time. When I am contracted to cover the operations of a company the workers are just as important as the equipment and processes in showing the success of the company.

Another scoop of paydirt is on it’s way to be processed. The higher vantage point allowed me to capture a part of the dragline on the other side of stockpile.

More and more companies are banning the use of stickers on hard hats. Over the years I have collected a few stickers for my bucket. Some have peeled off waiting for new ones to take their place. Your hardhat is like a trustee pair of jeans, the older they get the better the fit. Thoughts?

Using a longer exposure to capture this refinery smooths out the steam and enhances the facilities lighting creating a more dramatic effect.

It was all smiles while photographing this industrial mechanic. Even though the temp was above 32 degrees with 90% humidity he laughed when I told him it was -32 C back home.
