One of the most famous American oil fields, Salt Creek,Wyoming is still producing oil. This shot was taken in 1998, and the fields was owned ny Armoco at the time. 650 million barrels of oil have already been prduced here wirth the 1920s being the best years, when in one year alone 35 kmllion barrels gushed out, when nor pumps or pressure was needed, back in the age of the gushers.
There are numerous signs for hydrogen sulfide fumes, that can kill, and they are true. I wasn’t going to hang out for ninety minute exposre by moonlight on Ektar 25 film, so i drove through the field in moonlight to kill time, instead of myself.
