When you usually write headlines, you go for the most concise or compact version possible to conserve space.

Even though I'm a non native speaker, I haven't experienced any difficulties parsing and processing this headline. I am not sure what part of it that got you off balance.

For me it was the fact that 'pictures', 'show' and 'fuel' can be either verbs or nouns. Since I first parsed 'pictures' as a verb, it went downhill pretty fast.
