New Oil Well Derrick Images

I have finished uploading a series of images of oil well derricks to the Fine Art America web site. The photographs are dramatic and some of them employ a lot of color. Be sure to have a look at these photographs at full size. Some of them look very much alike until you look at them in a print size instead of the thumb size. See them at www.m-k-miller.artistwebsites.com.

The original photographs were taken in the East Texas area mostly in and around Kilgore, Texas. Kilgore is the heart of the East Texas oil field that went a long way in furnishing fuel to our country in World War II. It is no longer true now. But at one time, the derricks in Kilgore were so close together that in many places the supporting foot of one would overlap the foot of the one next to it.

I took these images for people living in areas where oil, gas, and transportation are a big deal. I guess that is almost anywhere. I was thinking that these images would be well placed in homes, businesses, hotels, and motels. However, after seeing finished product, they seem to be able to fit into almost any decorating scheme depending on the way they are framed.

Anyway, I hope that you enjoy the images.
