I had a chance to see what my Father’s parents
looked like because George Hunter took pictures
of them 1946 in the Canadian Arctic.

Thanks for the story about my Uncle Nick Morant and the park bench… He was BIG on pratical jokes. I developed a short career as a cinematographer in 1986, but had to give it up as couldn’t make a living @ 12.50/hr part-time. Working as a Cisco network engineer now.

Hi Arne,
You are going to love George’s next post. This time George is on assignment for the National Film Board of Canada in the Canadian Arctic in 1946. Amazing stories. Beautiful images. Tune in on Monday.

George, these stories are great, I am really looking forward to read about your globetrotting
years.
I recall being on a job in northern Norway- at a nato excersize -in a freezing cold land rover at 5 o’clock in the morning waiting for some action along with some other photographers. The guy next to me sounds as if he has a canadian accent and I ask him if he knows George Hunter. He looks at me and exclaims ” wherever I go in the world i meet somebody who knows George!!” It turned out he was a Toronto based photographer working for the RCR regiment.
Dad loves to read the blog as well!!
