[Photograph of six men sitting on and around oil pipes]

Photograph of six men sitting on and around oil pipes. The man on the left is seated on a pipe that is resting on the ground. A man is sitting above and behind him on pipe running from the main pipe, the focal point of the picture. Above and to the right of him is a man with his left leg hung over metal sticking out from the pipe. Next to him, on the right side of the pipe, stands a man leaning on the main pipe. Next to him is a man standing on the pipe with his left foot crossed over his right. A man is sitting on the pipe below the previous gentlemen. His legs are spread and his hands are placed in his lap with his feet dangling in the air. A pipe on the right side of the picture appears to be emitted some type of exhaust.
