IMHO If it's a photograph, and genatelia are exposed, its porn.

"If these pictures are comparable to say, National Geographic photos, that is, nude or semi nude kids in a natural environment that is not sexual in any way, then I don't see a problem"
That's kind of the way I see it.
Eric, I think it's David Hamilton's work. Should I be worried?
These aren't family photo's. Geez, I really did not make my post very clear did I? This is a professional photographer who took pictures of people in nudist camps. I think he was trying to express the innocense of a child who hasn't learned to be ashamed of their body. None of these photos show genitalia, at least none of the ones they've brought in so far. So far the only ones I've seen have been tasteful pictures of older teens sitting in chairs and the like.
Thanks so much for all of your replies! I appreciate it!
Leslie, my son and I are doing pretty good. One of these days we'll get together for real. ;-)

Whoops, forgot to mention...
Teejay, a man who owned an historic motel not far from where I worked brought in all kinds of historical artifacts to be framed. One item was called a slave bat. It horrified me and I had a hard time framing it. I only did it because my African American coworker could only stare at it open mouthed. To this day it surprises me that anyone would want to display that atrocity on a wall. It was shaped like a small baseball bat and it was very worn. I can still see it very clearly in my mind.

I waited and waited for someone to mention something to clue me in, but alas finally I must reveal my "ignoramusness" and ask:
What is a slave bat??????
