It’s late in the afternoon and we’re cruising an East Pilbara mine site in search of an image. If we’re able to pull one super image a day this shoot, we’ll be happy. Suddenly, Al, my assistant, spots a giant water truck with its jets on. The golden glow of the setting sun is hitting the tyre of the 200 hundred tonne haul pak in just the right spot. Hmmm. “How about we get the water truck to run back and forth with its jets on and shoot into the sun Al suggests? “You crouch up against the tyre and see what you can pull out of the tyre. You might get a bit wet.” “Righto”, I respond. So, we’re into it. Water truck driver is soon worded up. I’m down against the tyre. Al sitting back, ever watchful, looking for alternate angles. Our escort, is bemused by the unfolding scenario. Within less than 30 seconds, I’m wet from head to toe. The scenario works as follows. Water truck goes past at about five kilometres an hour with its jets on full. I’m shooting the tyre into the sun through the showering spray of the water truck. At the last minute I swing the camera away to avoid it being written off. It generally works well, until I move too slowly on one occasion. The camera gets nailed. I jump up from my crouching position and start to wipe what seems like 50 litres of water off of it. I’m certain it’s a A$10K write-off. The water-truck driver jumps down: “You guys are nuts.” The camera survives. We are soon back shooting the same scene. Great fun. Al and I have a great laugh together with our escort.
About Hugh Brown Collectable prints
In recent years, Hugh has begun to adopt an increasingly abstract approach to his work. This is perhaps best evidenced in Hugh's aerial photography. Hugh's Collection Prints are limited to editions of only seven and make for a wonderful addition to the collections of corporate and private owners alike.
