I'd only been in Brunei a few days when the Rasau 17 well blew out. The escaping gas caught fire on April 25, 1989 which puts a date on this image.

Endymion Flambeau 2010 (Click image for larger view)

I thought I lead off with this image of one of the Flambeau carriers from the 2010 Endymion parade. This was taken as the parade was about to set off. This guy was one of a group of about eight, all similarly dressed for their march to the Superdome. The torch is fueled from a propane tank secured to the frame on his back.
