Canadian Trains 2012 Calendar

With the exception of a few close friends, nobody knows that I often enjoy a good geek-out by the way of standing around railroad tracks waiting for a train to come. Trains in Canada are notoriously late, thus this is actually tough work. I’ve endured sun burn, bug bites, blackberry bushes and curious looks. Not to mention several encounters with weirdos. However, the pay off has resulted in me taking some of my favourite photos – ever. I’m beyond thrilled to have two photos of mine featured in the Canadian Trains Calendar from Wyman Publishing! My February photo is the feature page on the back cover, too. Despite sitting on approximately 100 cool train photos, these are the first ones I’ve had published anywhere. It’s so great for them to finally escape my hard drive for people to see. A big thank you to AllCanadaPhotos.com for making it happen!

The back of the calendar...

My February shot on the back of the calendar. This was actually shot in February too, just days before the Olympics.

Andy Roode Interview/Photos up on ESPN

Rail hop under the cherry blossoms in Coquitlam.

Andy Roode – East Van resident, Nova Scotia roots. Andy and I started on this project back in April, working on the spots and only shooting stuff that would be worthy. I’m really happy with the way this turned out and in the process got to know how Andy ticks – the dude worked hard on this. While it may have taken us a long time to get this project done, in the end it just makes it that much more gratifying when it’s published. Check it here.
