Revised photo essay


I work in an oil laboratory. I do various tests on samples of oil to make sure the oil is clean. Some of the tests I perform are, the Brookfield, soot, patch, particle count, and flash test. In my photo essay I focused mainly on the brookfield and patch tests.

Although it is not as interesting as a mad scientist lab, I tried to take great pictures. There are so many scientific instruments and tests to document. This project should be interesting to someone who has never been in a lab before. I hope that my photo essay can help educate someone on events that occur in a big oil plant.
Everyone drives, but never really thinks of where the oil, that helps their car run, comes from. We supply oil to hundreds of clients all around the world. We supply all of the oil to the buses in Milwaukee, that is one of our bigger accounts.

I hope to display some beauty in such an ugly business. I love my job and hopefully my photos will give an inside look and better understanding of what I do.
