The other night I sent him a bunch of pictures and they were sitting on my desktop. The next day I was in the room with my dad on my computer and he insisted he cleaned my computer screen because it was really dirty so i let him... as he was wiping it down... the towel was hitting some of the keys and ironically enough one of the dirty pictures opened up that i sent to my boyfriend! All my dad said was... "Hm... thats an interesting picture" and moved on and acted normal. The good thing is is that the picture didnt show my face and it was in a sepia tone. I still feel so embarrassed though... what should I do????

 How do you think your Dad felt? LOL
Let it go.
And I agree with Cerberus security advice - follow through on that!

 Don't do anything, your dad is probably just as embarrassed as you are and wants to forget it as much as you.

Do nothing just laugh it off and secure your pictures better OP, if hitting a key opens up a sexy picture then that's not exactly secure.
Just download a secure folder program that will allow you to keep them in a password protected, encrypted folder to keep his and yours in and ask him to do the same. Also delete the emails or messages you sent them in once you get them. If either of you are hacked or even sent your computer in to be repaired those pics will be uploaded to porn sites and your dad may inadvertently see them again, along with other guys you may know.
It's a simple process to secure them OP, secure folder, delete them from your phone or camera and delete the messages you sent them in.

 Yeah, I agree. I would definitely leave the subject alone. I think if your dad knew it was you, and it bothered him, he would have said something to you at the time.
To avoid any further embarrassment, though, I would get your pictures off of your desktop. Put them in a folder, and move them to a directory like "My Documents". That way, there wont be any chance for your dad to accidentally see them.
