There's a nude boy in the picture, and so the gays who sit on these 'art' panels gave it First Prize.

So damned predictable.

That's terrible Herby.

Govts. have pandered to homosexuals & now pedophile pictures win prizes.

I have no idea what makes one photo better than any other to be honest..

if thats a typical aussie back yard then its news to me......but good luck to the winner....

I would have thought the cross dressers would have been more to your taste herb!

just sayin.

Nude figures in painting and photo competitions are just such a lazy, boring, cheap cliché - but the pretentious pricks who sit on judging panels never fail to fixate on them for prurient reasons - and decide their awards accordingly. Small nude boys are especially a formula for winning over the judges.

Paedophile pornography dressed up as 'art'.

Wins every time.

yeah herb, because you're the voice of experience when it comes to how kids behave  :D :D :D :D

you kn ow herb to me seeing a child romp around naked is a delight its the only time they are not self conscious and can be free..... nothing wrong with it...its sad when you allow the sick minded to cloud your own behavior or thoughts....

a naked child shouldnt make you think about paedos....for gods sakes....it beauty... its whats in your mind that counts...btw there is another child in that picture... maybe you havent noticed.. :(

well said cods.

perhaps you've been slipping too many of those sour pills you mention into your wine ... you couldn't even accept a comment where I agreed with you without getting nasty .... I know, I know, you're the victim ::) ::) ::)

just sayin thats all..I will remember if there is ever another... ::)

Children (and people) have been depicted nude in art for a rather long time.

In a free society the people on the fringes will come up with some pretty weird stuff and while I'll cock my head and think wtf, I'm glad it's there.

The winning photo isn't bad.

The "highly commended" iPhone photo in the link is a joke.

I admit that you're a bitter nasty old bat who is to dumb to even see when she's being nasty.

There's one theory going around that people are actually born that way.

i.e. wearing clothes is unnatural.

True story.

Let me guess -

you as a homosexual think it's great?

ummmmmmm

Correct.

And since earliest times these nude figures in paintings and as statues have been soft porn parading as 'art' for the titillation of the male libido.

Nude paintings in art galleries are the elephants-in-the-room so far as anyone openly admitting to the fact that these are designed to draw the eye for lascivious reasons.

Needless to say Michelangelo's 'David' is a celebration of Early 16th century pornography which has ever since been a Mecca for homosexuals the world over to visit and pay homage to. I believe we have a couple of members here who have done the 'hajj'.


Not that there's anything wrong with that of course ...  8-)

just because you get a hard on, don't go blaming everyone else.

Repeat:

Don't you have Twitter or Facebook to keep you amused, John?

Are you quite sure you wouldn't be happier playing graffiti games with people of your own age?
