The picture below is from a screen capture off YouTube. My publisher says that the resolution is too low, and I'm having a lot of trouble finding who owns the picture so I can even ask their permission to use it.

Does anyone have a photograph of of a pipeline hydrostatic test failure that they would be willing to allow me to include in a book titled Practical Onshore Gas-Field Engineering (with photographer credit, of course)?

I've got good pictures of pneumatic and hydrostatic test failures in vessels, but finding pipeline test failures has been tough. I've found a few, but they are either too low a resolution or I can't find the owner.

If you have something you'd be willing to share, please follow the link in my signature to my web page and go to "Contact Us" for a link to my e-mail (site management here doesn't want e-mail addresses to be posted on eng-tips.com because it encourages bots).

25362,
Thanks. I've seen all of them (I've been searching the Interwebz an hour or so a day for 2 months), a couple would have worked, but they are 72 dpi and all copied (without written permission as best I can tell from the few people who returned my e-mails) from a source that copied them from another source. On one of them I ran the chain back 3 levels before I found someone who said "I just grabbed a screen capture from a video and I can't even begin to remember where I got the video".

I'm looking to this vast community to share personal photos with me if possible.
