Explaination to all...
image is from june 25, before the gulf got covered in clouds from alex... you are seeing an image of the norhtern part of the gulf, from louisianna, the florida panhandle and the west coast of florida on the right hand side fo the image.
the land mass is a dark greenish gray..the ocean is a lighter gray, with some darker areas in it. the oil on the surface is the whiter stuff extending from the bp rig to the coastline from pensacola to gulfport/biloxi.
an earlier video of the spill is available on youtube, and you can see how the spill started here
