The Journey of Oil

They say a picture tells a thousand words. Well that is certainly the case in this presentation, from Ted.com, as Edward Burtynsky follows the path of oil through modern society. Using stunning large-format photographs, oil is followed from wellhead to pipeline to car engine and beyond. This short but excellent presentation is a real insight into the world of oil manufacture and the landscape created by it. For more information and to see the photos in more detail, click here.
