(Ecns.cn)--Photos of students posing suggestively in school uniforms in Changchun, the capital of China's northeast Jilin Province, have triggered heated discussion online, according to the China News Service on Wednesday.
The racy photos of student models caused some people to cringe, while others had no problem with them.
The idea for the photos came from a photographer named Mo Lun. Mo, at the time of his graduation, wanted to capture the school uniforms as memories of his university life. He found that there were no artistic photos of the uniforms in Changchun, so he decided to fill the gap.
Mo's photo shoot attracted many people, especially college students. The pictures belong to the subjects he photographed, and were posted online only after they had given their permission, according to Mo.
For some students, wearing school uniforms and posing erotically for pictures is fashionable and interesting. They say the uniforms remind them of middle school life, although not all of the models were middle school students.
"The pictures are not only about sexy poses, but also contain creativity and art," said Lu Andi, a junior who participated in the photo shoot.
