I couldn't agree more with that statement from a photographer whose portrait of a high school senior was deemed unacceptable for the school yearbook because she posed with a prop: a flower.
Flowers in the background are acceptable, mind you, as are trees. You just are not allowed to hold anything in your hands in the picture. No matter how innocuous and benign it may be.
See, some guy wanted to pose with a gun a couple of years ago, and these brilliant school officials could not figure out how to ban posing with guns without banning posing with flowers.
I think this one deserves a great big "sheesh".
