Story:
The village of Val-Jalbert, nestled in Quebec, Canada, was established in 1901 by Damase Jalbert. The village’s heart was a pulp mill, strategically located at the base of the majestic Ouiatchouan Falls. This mill operated for nearly three decades, from 1901 to 1927, until it was abandoned, leaving the village in a state of desolation. Today, visitors can explore the remnants of the mill, where the power plant still stands, harnessing the energy of the river that creates the awe-inspiring Ouiatchouan Falls. The mill has been transformed into a museum, offering visitors a fascinating glimpse into its past. Additionally, the museum boasts an excellent restaurant, providing a delightful dining experience amidst the surrounding natural beauty. My mission was to capture its water and share the breathtaking magnificence of this waterfall.
