Bite him, you evil nutritional scientist from, ummm, muslim hell. May your LDL be high and your HDL be low. Bah.
 
In this day and age that is simply not a yes or no question. In times past, an innocent photo of a new born baby was commonplace. I have some of those in my childhood photo book.

Now days taking a roll of film to a processing studio with such a photo on the negatives could get you thrown in jail.

I have taken a photo of my niece during a summer visit on digital format in a bath tub full of bubble bath and all you can see is her head, I feel this type of photo is fine, as did her parents and other family.

Photographing children in the nude now days just for the sake of art is not well accepted in out society. I have read horror stories in the news papers and on the net where a father or mother has taken in film for development with an innocent photo of a child running around in the house or at the beach nude and the police where call and charges ensued.

I am a professional photographer myself and I stay away from such photos. A photo of a fully clothed child is just as artistic, with out all the possible headaches that could arise if it was a nude photo.
 
A guy is walking into a forest holding a young girl by the hand.

"I'm scared" the young girl says.

"*You're* scared?" says the man. "I have to walk out of here by myself."
 
IMO, kiddie porn is acceptable only when the subject of the photograph turns 18 and agrees to release the photo of him/herself. Otherwise it is exploitation of children.

That's a creative idea but still room for it to be abused, and no lawmaker is into doing pedos a favor.
