She's athletic, she's talented, and she's also a skater which means she wears short skirts and kicks high! Folks, this IS ice skating! For every person who was shocked there were probably ten people who enjoyed the cheekiness, spontaneity, honesty and sexiness of this photo. I am one of them.</p>Doniel Dole commented on 'Racy picture from skating?

These days with 'high speed photography' and 'continuous photography' even an amateur photographer can capture the most innappropriate picture, given time. It's selecting the 'right picture' to be published is what matters. Suffice it for me to say that the ones published are not the most flattering, but in 'bad taste'? I don't think so. </p>Lily commented on 'Racy picture from skating?

<p>Is your house filled with pictures of your family sneezing, because taking a third shot would have been far too difficult?</p>
<p>This isn't rocket science. Its photography. You delete the ones out of focus, the sneezes, the red eyes, and That picture. </p>
<p>When its on the front page, in colour, and a minor? You make for darn sure you choose a professional photograph.</p>derek van dassen commented on 'Racy picture from skating?
