I wanted to point it out because not only is it a fun feature, but we also have several podcast interviews that I thought were particularly interesting this month. Ray Argyle talks about meeting Robert Mallandaine, who is looking over Donald Smith's shoulder as he pounds home the last spike - arguably Canada's most famous photo.

For anyone who can follow along, there is also a great interview in French with Robert Nadon, the photographer who captured the image of Pierre Laporte's body in the trunk of a car during the October Crisis.
And finally, you can also hear Ric Ernst discuss how the judges narrowed down their list of iconic images.

This was such a great article and the photographs were wonderful illustrations of how diverse our history really is - thanks for the interview links!
His name was Edward Mallandaine, not Robert.
