It Doesn’t Snow Underground|Mining Industrial Photographer James Hodgins
It’s true if you didn’t know it already. It doesn’t snow underground but the Grader still has a job to do by smoothing out the roads on a regular basis.

Here is a quick sneak peak at one of the images I created this Wednesday with the Joy Global 4LD at the Norcat Facility in Onaping. I enjoy photographing equipment when it comes straight off the productive line as it’s still fairly clean and shiny with just a hint of wear and tear from the drive in.
Earlier this year I was asked by Dovetail Communications if I could supply them with images to be featured throughout their next edition of the Camese Compendium Of Canadian Mining Suppliers 2017 which arrived in my mail yesterday. Camese is a trade association made up of Canadian companies & suppliers of the mining industrial industry. I wish to thank all involved at Dovetail and Camese for choosing Mining Industrial Photographer @miningphoto for the cover and inlaying images.

On my way back from a shoot last week I pulled over on the highway to take a quick photograph of this Winter Scene. It was a frosty morning with a good blanket of snow on the ground and I drive past this area all the time, but with the snow covering the ground the whole area took on a different look which made me want to capture it.
As the seasons change here in Ontario so does the apparel I wear on the job site. Recently I started wearing my Green Custom High Visibility Vest manufactured by Ago Industries. I photographed their facility and processes a few years ago and as a thank you they made me this High Visibility Vest to wear on my shoots. I have had it tucked away as I tend to wear a 1 piece overall but now that the cold weather is hear and I am layering up, this vest is perfect to still keep me visible.

I was just browsing through the latest edition of Canadian Mining Journal and happily came across another instance where images I have created are being used in Industry Articles. It’s no surprise as Maclean Engineering are actively using the images for social media, marketing and obviously trade magazines. I just couldn’t picture this article having the same impact if it was taken with the Supervisors Cell phone.
It’s Monday and I am back in the trenches of everyday life. I love Mondays. It’s the start of a brand new week. What happens in the first few hours of waking up on Monday can set the rest of the week in motion. Like the Haul Truck below it get’s dirty and sometimes monotonous but the job needs to get done in order to make progress.

I got a first hand glimpse of Transition Metals Northern Ontario Exploration Site with staff Geologist Peter McIntyre last week.. You might recall Transition Metals from a blog post I did last year when Transition Metals was featured in the Ontario Prospector Magazine.

Reaming Shells which are manufactured to withstand difficult drilling conditions and provide long life are ment to be long lasting. Like the shell a quality high impact image can withstand difficult economic conditions and also provide long life throughout your marketing campaign. A solid image should focus on the product, person, or process and enhance the marketing material it is presented with. See my Crap VS Snap Gallery and see the difference.

It’s already October and the Fall colors are making themselves known in the outdoors. Underground however doesn’t seem to rotate around any color spectrum except for grey, black and dusty (I know it’s not a color but it should be). The end of the year is coming fast and I know what else is coming during these next few months……….last minute “crap I forgot to get these done” photo sessions. Bring them on, I am used to it but don’t wait to long where you have to postpone it until the Spring and your marketing materials in the new year suffer due to lack of images.
