Dirtied Model Spreads

Tom Munro Shoots a Muddy Karolina Kurkova for Vogue Spain January 2011

Tom Munro does an amazing job photographing muddy model Karolina Kurkova for Vogue Spain January 2011. The theme reminds me of western military with its aviators, cowboy hats and a saluting model.

Karolina Kurkova makes it hard to focus on the clothes because it looks like she needs a bath badly. Smeared with mud and dirt, Kurkova still manages to look good, rockin' a large dead fish over her shoulders and posing with a bow and arrow.
