I'm not sure about this one. Some who have seen it think it's

obscene! Your comments and ratings gratefully accepted.

u know I looked at it and i like it....then I noticed the title of it and looked again as well as read your message......well the longer I do look at it......umm....well i think you know it looks like a penis. lol what can I say?

Its rude ! :)

Not my cup of tea but still a great pic.

I think if I had seen this I would have taken it also.

Very funny

In response to your critique question Is it obscene? - Well, it is the reproductive part of a living thing! (But aren't most flower close ups?) Seriously: great color, I like the softness, good gentle mood overall. I think there are many who would put it on their wall (or somewhere) for both its beauty and its gentle humor. Great work!

Added later: OK this is too much fun, here is a picture I posted recently in the same vein http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=495870

I agree with the above comments. Although I don't find it obscene... I admit I did find it to have some simularity to part of the male reproductive system. :) I also love the softness and peaceful mood it offers. It's very beautiful and natural. Definately a wall hanger in my book.

May be we should talk about an allusive erotic shot, more than "obscene" -that sounds too hard.

Wow! I thought flowers are strictly into bees...

 

 

Beautiful and soft colors and movement, with of course, an obvious phallic symbol. At first glance, I was actually reminded of this image:

I was surprised to see Nestor's reference to the photo of my mushrooms - when I started getting all the "vaginal" comments, I had to laugh. I got the same response from my "pistacho" image in the same folder.

 

I guess there's no arguing that Freud was on the right track with how people's minds work.

Adds another meaning to the technique known as "post-production manipulation."

To Jodie: I wonder who's mind is working how. That is: the photographer's one or the viewer's one? ;-))

You naughty boy!...

Yes. Its erotic and Art. Georgia O'keeffe did flowers and each person is open to interpretation. I think its a very sensual picture. Well done. Nancy

I know what I like and I like this alot. It would be a hanger on my wall.
