Description
With the oil boom in ND this is a common sight. At night you can see flames burning all over the countryside lighting up the night sky like you were in Mordor! Caught this one just at the right time driving down the highway to get the sun in that position. Full view is a must!

Cool shot man, takes me back a long way. Did a lot of Seismic Exploration (Oil exploration) just across the Border in Montanna back in the early 90s. Drill Derricks can look impressive even majestic, it's what comes later that gets ugly, the leaking ugly Pumpjacks that will take the Derricks place. Like the Permian Bassin around Midland/Odessa in West Texas, 50/75 years after the Derricks and the Oil has all been sucked dry, miles and miles of dead, rusted Pumpjacks littering the Desert like a graveyard of Mechanical Dinosaurs. Peace
