Lupi snapped harrowing pictures of the dead being taken aboard a boat, named Phoenix, owned by Malta-based NGO Migrant Offshore Aid Station (MOAS).
On Friday, more than 2,000 migrants were plucked from the Med in a series of dramatic rescues and one person was found dead, officials and witnesses said.
An Italian coast guard spokesman said 19 rescue operations by the coast guard or ships operated by NGOs (non-governmental organisations) had saved a total of 2,074 migrants.
