Lara Hopkins gave us several links regarding photos of breastfeeding,
including:

The Sydney Morning Herald shows a lot of breast and areola here:

What I found most interesting in the article is the following:  "Absolutely
it is discriminatory and it makes me angry," said group member Pru Wirth, a
mother of two from the central coast in NSW [Australia].  "If actual venues
can be fined up to $40,000 for asking breastfeeding mums to cover up or move
on, then why not a virtual public place?"

My reaction was WOW; their fine can be as high as $40,000?  We could
certainly use that in the USA and elsewhere.  That would make a lot of
people sit up and take notice that they are violating the civil rights of
children when they interfere with their feeding in public and that there are
serious consequences to such actions.

P.S.  I loved this one:  Sesame Street has shown breastfeeding:
