美國體操天后比妮絲（Simone Biles）接受《時尚》（Vogue）雜誌訪問，並登上 8 月號的封面，叫粉絲雀躍不已。封面相片由著名攝影師安妮萊博維茨（Annie Leibovitz）掌鏡，但大量網民卻認為照片拍攝質素差劣，引來連串批評的聲音！

萊博維茨替比妮絲拍攝了一系列的照片，其中兩張被揀選出來，成為紙本雜誌及數碼版的封面照。網民批評這兩張照片「光線很差」、「攝影師不懂打燈」，皮膚甚至呈現「褪色」的感覺。此外，雜誌又在 Instagram 上張貼第三張照片。網民的評語也以負面居多，例如：令比妮絲顯得憂傷和不耐煩。網民指責《時尚》雜誌說，應該聘請一位瞭解如何拍攝深色膚色的黑人攝影師，日後亦應該多聘用黑人攝影師和模特兒。

I adore Simone Biles and am thrilled she’s on this cover... but I hate these photos. I hate the toning, I hate how predictable they are, I hate the social crop here (wtf?) and I super hate that Vogue couldn’t be bothered to hire a Black photographer. https://t.co/az0gLugdzS

This @Simone_Biles shoot was great but again, I’m disappointed at how many professional photographers don’t know how to treat dark skin. These edits took less than 10 mins to color correct. #VOGUE pic.twitter.com/qVr1mwQOCi

This photo of THE Simone Biles for Vogue magazine was taken by “THE” Annie Leibovitz. How a person can work as a professional photographer for decades and still be this bad at lighting and photographing dark skin is baffling to me. Annie are you ok? pic.twitter.com/ycaH9LxsLL

If we can see these shots are horrible why couldn’t Annie Leibovitz? Lighting & styling are all wrong

事實上，網上亦有支持安妮的聲音。支持者的理據主要圍繞比妮絲的受訪內容，包括：奧運體操隊隊醫 Larry Nasser 性侵案（她是指控者之一）及種族主義等，都是一些沉重與陰暗的話題，所以照片刻意塑造陰沉和平淡的顏色與色調，呼應主題。

These comments are shocking; they entirely miss the creative direction and storytelling here. The story alongside these is about a dark, challenging time with Nasser/US Gymnastics and racism. As a photographer I think they’re very strong, as is she: https://t.co/GFZHtSajsy
