    I done this recently with my sister.  I created a share folder of pictures and then added her email address to the invitees (Click the "people" link at the bottom)

     

    She couldnt see them at first as she was not on a mac, but I found changing the "Public website" option to "on" worked - of course I think this means that anyone could come across your pics and see them, so might want to be careful if they are "sensitive"

    If your sister follows the PC set up procedures in the above links she can directly access them with no public website - and yes of course a public web is "public"
