Victor Shovelling Snow

Victor is in his seventies and operates a crane rental business. I chanced upon him as we were driving around various industrial sites along Lake Ontario looking for interesting things to shoot. He was shovelling the entrance to his equipment storage yard and we got to chatting. As it turns out Vic is from the Gaspésie region of Québec and a fellow Francophone. We spent a few minutes chatting in French in the sub-zero temperature, while I made several pictures.

Vic shared part of his life story and asked me to come back to photograph some of the equipment in his compound. I think I'll take him up on the offer.
