"An avid cinematographer, stills photographer and darkroom expert, Collin Hanney developed the first colour separation techniques in western Canada, and left a wealth of film and photographic material to be archived for future generations.
Spanning 50 years, his photographic explorations described an arc from Bloody Falls at Coppermine in the Central Arctic – to the great rain forests of Chiapas in southern Mexico.
Armed with his 16mm Bolex movie camera, a Rolleiflex for B&W stills and a Leica for colour slides, Hanney recorded with an artist’s eye the heart of all that each adventure revealed."
