Wolfgang, this is a beautiful image and I can understand why the men here would think it also both because it's a great photo and one where men can equate it to a woman's vagina. I, as a woman, find it a little stark and lacking perhaps the softness of a woman's body especially when thinking of her being fertile. I keep thinking a layer of very light pink and set to soft mode would pull it into the realm of a seductive women's part, but that's from the standpoint of me, and nobody else. It is definitely a fabulous image though. Maggie
Hi folks!
Thank you very much for your interesting input! Very much appreciated!
When I showed this picture to my wife, she stopped and said: "wow, this is so female ..."
Maggie, I think doing some colorchanges to the picture would push it up from something mysterious to something obvious - that's not my intention.
I now approach the picture in a totally different manner. It’s like having revisited a museum with a guide to explain the symbolism in a painting!

That's alright, Wolfgang. It is a personal opinion, and as I said, only mine. Obviously, if we all did things exactly the same way, what a boring world it would be. I still think the image is beautiful as it truly is.
