6. Seriously
The woman has not just a baby fetish.... it's a newborn fetish. I really wonder how many preemies she's photographed over the years.

10. Creepy but sorta sweet at the same time
Some of them, like the first one, it seems that the babies are oblivious so no harm no foul. The ones where they're all contorted and dressed up seem cruel. Buuuuut, the expression on the face of the baby in the roses cracks me up. So,dammnit, I'm all confused about how I feel.

12. Total shit.
Not art that will be talked about in future textbooks.

Bill O'Reilly just claimed that I started the War on Babies.

It's still shit, though.

17. Those babies in the translucent cocoons
Look like they're waiting for that giant spider from The Return of the King. Definitely creepy.

20. Stupid
I don't like them and why would any parent allow their children to pose like that?

25. Oh look! A poll for me!

I said as much in the other thread but Anne Geddes' work is nightmarish and depraved, IMO.

sorry, edited for a typo
