Photograph by Gary Cross of 10 year old Brooke Shields #photography

Photograph by Gary Cross but pixelated to obscure potentially illegal parts!

What do you think of it?

 Britain's famous Tate Modern art museum removed a provocative nude photograph of 10-year-old Brooke Shields after Scotland Yard warned that the image might violate obscenity laws, according to a report in the Guardian. Police officers went to the museum after reading about it in the newspapers. A Scotland Yard source told the Guardian the visit was a matter of "common sense" to pre-empt any breach of the law. The image was actually a photograph of a photograph which was at the center of a legal battle when Brooke tried to buy all the negatives and stop it from being published. She lost the case because her mother had allegedly given permission for the photo shoot.
