Oh Mann !

No doubt you have seen Sally Mann's work before, if you haven't you are in for a treat! It was so hard to choose which images I wanted to use in this post as I could have happily used any of her images. She mainly use her 3 children in her photography, this has caused a lot of controversy in America due to their nudity and in one magazine one of her photos was shown with the child's eyes, nipples and genitals covered with a black strip. What was the point of featuring it in the first place ? Its not like she has photographed her children in a pornographic or remotely sexual way, you have to be pretty sick to be turned on by these little children. I think these images are absolutely stunning and have such a powerful impact and if anything I  think the nudity of her children just conveys and intensifies their innocence.
