As the oil’s still gushing from the bottom of the sea proportions of the disaster can only be uderstood from sky pictures, though the colours and the beauty of such images can’t really suggest what a oil plluted gulf does mean. Birds and wildlife cought in the oil on the other hand are images we get used to too easily and again those are only mediatic examples.
