The latest photos related to the BP oil spill causing a stir aren’t photojournalism but a fashion spread in Vogue Italia, titled “Water & Oil.” Photographer Steven Meisel shoots model Kristen McMenamy, clad in black, coated in oil, and draped across tainted beaches. In one shot, she has a black feather perched on her lips. In another, an oil-drenched feathered glove stands in for the hundreds of birds soaked in the spill.
