Next time I publish a book I'm going to write "some people are offended" in the press release. Nothing like controversy for some clicks.

If we do, maybe we could limit (or at least "open") it to our own family photos. I do see what Wendy is saying about the last one . . . but there are others that I think any of the subjects of the originals could only be charmed or amazed in a positive way.

I'm of mixed feelings. I think many are truly incredible, but I was a little bit on the fence until I came to the last image.

Look at the woman in the last photo. That's a face of a person that's dealt with life. I think the face shows strength, determination and hardship -- so in viewing the photo with that context, it seems disrepectful.

So I'm torn.

I like it a lot, to me it is a transformation from photos as documents to photos as art. I think the unknown subjects would love them if they were still alive.

I love it and think the original “artist-photographer” would appreciate the artistry. They remind me of Maggie Taylor’s Work.

I think they're brilliant. And I think that some of the originals were 'asking for it'.

Critics think she's being disrespectful.

What do you think?
