  • stating that the Dost factors “are neither comprehensive nor necessarily applicable in every situation”
  • “[T]he focus should be on the objective criteria of the photograph’s design.”
  • “We believe, however, that it is a mistake to look at the actual effect of the photograph on the viewer, rather than upon the intended effect. If Amirault’s subjective reaction were relevant, a sexual deviant’s quirks could turn a Sears catalog into pornography.” (citation omitted)
