Renate a Heavy Equipment Apprentice I recently photographed in the mechanics shop at the Lac des Iles Mine. When you chat with her, you can feel the passion and confidence she has for her job and the industry.

Finding the right balance is key. Sometimes it’s about accentuating the soft glow of the cap lamp while other times it’s about strategically placing my lights to mimic the existing illumination. It’s a delicate dance between enhancing and preserving the atmosphere. It’s about crafting a visual narrative that draws the viewer into the moment, making them feel like they’re right there with us.

Another one of my favorite underground images to capture . Sitting in the vehicle. There is always opportunity to capture/create this image as it presents itself multiple times throughout a shift. Sometimes I get lucky with the lighting, sometimes I create my own luck lol.

Check out the recent issue of Mining Life & Exploration News with an image I created for MacLean Engineering at their Research & Development facility in Sudbury, Ontario ~ (https://issuu.com/canadiantradex/docs/ml_en_digital_spring_2023)

This image is simple enough to capture but it does take some finessing to get the lighting right, especially when you are using the cap lamps as a main light source. Direction and intensity of the cap lamps have to be tweaked to achieve the correct exposure while maintaining the realistic look of the underground environment. It’s even more difficult when they are chatting and moving while discussing the job at hand but watching the interaction for a few minutes, you can foresee the moment you want to capture.

Here is an image I captured while at the Norcat Mining Transformed event last year. Just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not there. Using technology like VR and AI glasses our mining technology is changing the way we present and receive information while on the job.

Open pit, underground, in the shops, warehouses and in the field, the faces of mining span across so many different jobs, positions and environments.

This image was spur of the moment request while on site. We had some rough diamonds, a small room a countertop and little time but we made it work.

The last image I captured during a First Responders session in North West Territories. The sun was dropping fast but it still worked out in our favor.
