'Lost Orchid'

:rse:
I really, really, really like that.
Even if it is flowery, it's Dali-esque flowery. I've never seen one like this before, TC.
I love the stairs - what do they lead to - where are they coming from, what secrets lie behind this image, what tragedy, will there be joy?
this is a moment, surrounded by mystery......
I'm dubious about his blue and green women - beautiful women do not appeal to me, visually or emotionally. :thd:

Glad you like it. :-*
Also called "The Weeping Rose". Yes, even flowers have feelings! ;)
It's probably a bunch of flowers which fell of after a wedding. The stairs will be leading up to the church or registery office. It's likely to be somewhere you can't smoke as there is a discarded cigerette.

Oh dear, TC!
I see a corsage, not wedding bouquet, it's not the bride and groom, but a drama played out in the life of one of the guests.
The flower itself is erotically ambiguous - blatant female genitalia used to be thinly disguised as flower parts, as is in this image.
Though maybe it is the bride - signified by the white petals around the lush pink interior
The snake-like coils of coloured bits signify rape and abandonment, drooping, they speak of detumesence, the colours represent life, but the dark background speaks of rot, decay and decadence.....
