This past week I had to pleasure of going with Joe to Juneau for two days to shoot at Hecla's Greens Creek Mine. Wow! What an experience! I learned so much about mining and got to shoot in one of the coolest environments I have ever been in. It was on an island off the coast of Juneau which meant that when we got there we had to take a float plane to the island. That night we caught the ferry back to Juneau with the crew. We rode both ways the next day with the ferry (5am departure, 5pm return). 4am wake-ups are always fun! I can't express what an amazing two days it was. Joe and I had to keep reminding each other that we were hundreds of feet below ground in a working MINE! Here are some behind the scenes shots.
