 I was raised in the oilfields of Saudi Arabia. At night, a bright orange glow would persist from the burning of gas that had been separated from the oil at the nearby refinery. While the technical process of refining oil has since been improved and the gas is no longer burned, these images were an attempt to capture the odd feeling and sensation of "being in another world." (Flares #1)

Long exposures of color transparency film allowed for the deep rich saturation of the subtle colors; green, mostly yellow and orange, a lot of red, to be recorded by the film.  The extended exposures also allowed for the phenomena of film reciprocity - the longer film is exposed to light, the less sensitive it becomes. In short, there are minor and sometimes extreme color shifts.  (Flares #2)
