Several years ago, I brought an album with photos taken at a music festival
to the next one, so that people can see the photos.
Several people said: "Great album, all wonderful photos, except for my
photograph, could you please remove it?"
A similar situation repeated the next time...

I agree with many of you that the concern about the kiddy porn stuff is
a bit over the top...
My point is that anyone whose photo has been taken should be asked if
they mind being published if it is possible to do so and certainly if
you take a photo straight on. And if you can get a models
This reminds me of a story I saw recently about the early days of HIV/AIDS -
some kid in Virginia was required to wear a bubble to school to protect the
other kids. Today it is photographers who are dangerous and many want to put a
bubble around us to protect themselves and their kids.

Some people get a special kind of psycho. Period.

a dress-up, semi-formal sit-down dinner.
