Fossil Fuelscapes
Summary
From above, fossil fuel refineries and related facilities can be seen in their full complexity - appearing as organism-like networks, circuit boards, or small cities unto themselves. They stretch in vast complexities of lines, pipes, tubes, fans, smokestacks, vents, holding containers and ducts. I became fascinated by the intricate shapes & structures of these facilities, and shot this series of photos from small planes in the late afternoons to capture the sites with golden light.
