Post subject:  Baby's Bottom

So I took a picture over the weekend of my baby without a stitch on. She's laying on a bed tummy down and the pic is side on (a profile if you like). You cannot see any naughty bits or see anything I wouldnt want someone seeing and the photo is completely innocent and IMO very cute and baby-ish.

My aim is to take all the pics I've taken over the year and put them in a photo book. Nic raised the question though as to whether the printers would allow this photo. I'd not thought about it to be honest so now find myself wondering. In this over sensitive world which is obviously full of predatory pedos and Daily Mail readers should I (or would you) think it acceptable?

(I will post the pic when my internets comes back tomorrow if you want)

I think you're worrying too much.

You're the child's parent. If a printer refuses to deal with an image, find someone else.

It's so easy to end up second-guessing stuff like this. My view is we should just get on with life and sod what other people think.

Yes you should and yes I would.
You have (or will have) a huge body of images of your child in various stages of growth. It's perfectly clear that it's your child and you're just photographing the development of said baby.
How anyone could see this and object to a single image out of a body of images must be bonkers.

Frankly I'd be horrified, angry and furious if you didn't do it. :x

She's absolutely gorgeous and photos like that make the world a better place to be in.

And if anybody says anything, tell them very clearly to foxtrot oscar. Simples.

And it begins....

Two of Nic's friends came over yesterday when I was out. They saw this photo on the fireplace (6x4 in a glass frame) and commented how nice it was. Nic asked if it was appropriate and they raised their concerns. When I told Nic I put it here she wasnt happy and started to ask if I would be putting it on Facebook (with my other 150+ baby pics). She wasnt happy when I said yes.

So it now seems its an issue. When I asked why she said she's concerened about who might get their hands on the picture (her words). FFS. Where has this view come from that 1) everyone on the internet is a paedo and 2) they would somehow hunt down a random photo of a baby that shows nothing 'graphic' whatesoever of a baby or person they dont know so they can *cough* have a nice time.

I don't see the issue.

Asked the gf is she thought anything was wrong with the photo. No not at all.

Asked her if it was her baby, would she post it on FB. Definitely not.

Women. :roll: :lol:

In fairness, I think that's thousands of years of maternal instinct kicking in... </devil's advocate>

She told me she was 36. :(

Looks good for her age though. :P

I refer the honourable gentleman to the post I made previously.

In addition you may want to ask if it would make a difference if the child was male.

I didnt think of that one. That'll be the next point. I'm on my soapbox a little about this one. I think Nic has given up :lol:

I asked the wife to have a look at the photo. She likes.
I asked her if she would put in on Facebook, (if she "did" Facebook) and she said absolutely yes.
Her opinion is that at the end of the day it's a nice picture of a cute child, and there is nothing inappropriate about it.
I agree with her.
