Similarly if a woman is "exposed" either because of shortness of skirt or wind lifting up that garment there is a difference between a photo that includes that "exposure" and one "focussed" (sic) on that "exposure".
The law seems to cover this but saying it only applies to shots you wouldn't have gotten without sticking the phone under someone's clothes.
