Not good at all for our climate but the process of drilling oil and how an oil field looks is great for a Geometric January. I spotted the oil field and the field of crops in lines (header) from a train in California, more on that eventful journey another day.

For those wondering we’re in the middle of a Squares Challenge, and the theme is Geometry.

We’ve been sharing shapes, space, lines, and well everything geometric. This branch of mathematics is part of everyday life; used by animators, architects, artists, astronomers, carpenters, cartographers, designers, engineers, landscape gardeners, navigators, scientists, urban planners, and of course us the Squares Gang.

If you haven’t yet joined us then there is still plenty of time. You could post daily for the rest of the month, at the weekends or may just once by 31st January. The only thing you must do is keep at least one image square!

  1. Interesting photos. I’ve seen oil wells drilling here in TX all my life, mostly in fields like these, but also some inside city limits. Fun to watch them. There is an odor with them too, and people say it’s the smell of money $$ – well it is for the ones who own the wells. Not us.

    Here’s my entry:

    1. I love travelling by train, and you are right would make a superb topic, Although for a daily one probably need to accept other forms of transportation to enable everyone to take part
