Acerca del libro
The 1950’s and 60’s were some of the most remarkable times in Seismic Exploration. Young men from around the world braved desert and jungle, muskeg and ice to push back the boundaries of geology and geophysics.



This book documents that time; starting from humble roots in Southern Alberta and on to the deserts of Libya, the frozen tundra of the Yukon and the mud of Central Alberta.



Based on a cookie tin of slides and a photo album of images left by my father-in-law this book is a tribute to doodlebugs everywhere; back to an era when oil was truly “found in the minds of men” and not on a balance sheet in an air-conditioned office.

I specialize in urban and documentary photography observing people and things around me. I'm always intrigued with how we interact with each other, our technology and nature. I have contributed to various projects, my most recent being Calgary's Heritage Park's 50th Anniversary book project where I was lead photographer. This book drew on the work put into my first collection, "Heritage Park Suite", My most recent book "Working Stiffs: The People" is the first of a two part project dedicated to working men and women that are often unseen, unknown and unthanked. The second part will focus on the "Tools of the Trade" and look at the tools, technology and "stuff" that working men and women use to get their jobs done. This should be available late 2017 to early 2018.
