The photo owned by Elton John that was removed for possible child pornography charge. [May not be SAFE for work] Is this ART?

I'm not looking at that, in other words.

Is this an FPP?

Can we get a text description, maybe? Belly dancing is typically performed clothed, so I'm imagining something not particularly scandalous.

I'm not gonna click on that link, though.

Let me explain how the world works. Naked adults is probably not safe for work. A photo that was removed "for a possible child pornography charge" is not only definitely not safe for work, it could land you in prison if you saw it alone on a home computer in a 3rd floor locked basement.

It's pretty harmless naked kids playing. I was not aroused, but YMMV.

I'm offended by the immorality of such awful photography. It has no redeeming aesthetic value.

Naked kids? Meh.

How does that work, exactly?
