In a world of 16 frames a second, a hundred or more e-mails a day, text, tweet, one may take a moment of pause and look into a"still" picture.
The common mention is ... a picture is worth ten thousand words. But rarely is the conversation of those words mentioned.
This picture is a dramatic mile stone conversation for IOC Share Holders.
Of particular note are the four participants. The photographer is the one providing the optical perspective. Composition and composure of a recorded visual image. Nicely done.
Thematicly sets well into the AFR article of a personal jourmey of a expat into the wilds of the O&G industry. The writing style is near romantic. The eye will move away from outlines of faces and places and read the print. After reading the print one may note that there is no mention of what the three interestingly atired IOC employee's are looking at. We can see the composure, but the line of sight of a horizon is not in the usual place.
Four reflections deep we can see the point of interest. Actually there are six, but the other two are technicals.
1) The camera lens itself
2) The convex lens of polorized curved sunglass lenes ( Shades)
3) The point of image itself
4) The point of image reflection of itself.
The best for our purposes, is the gentleman on the right of MS (IOC). If you magnify the right side lens you can see the point of interest and insight of this post:
It Is A Gas Flair.
Natural gas has flowed to the surface under high pressure (PSI?) to the surface.
A test has likely been performed to learn of many MMCFPD will flow from a zone in the well.
MS (IOC) went there to see it hiimself and document his and our journey in a photo article weekend edition of one of the finest journels of Australia.
There is much more in the conversation of this picture. For excample, did IOC prior to posting on website or AFR printing of article understand the content of the picture?
But I will leave it here, with thanks to PetEng1 whose old picture of oil in Arkansas gave the cognitive inception point to peer into reflections.
Congrats again to SHU Shareholders.
