Nice to see a strawberry seen for its shape and textures rather than its colour. Tim A

Thanks Chris, Alex, Lee, Olaf, Pops and Victor.
LOL, After you all pointed out all the various interpretations, I now can see them too... neat! Did not think of all these before. How perception changes with knowlwdge :)
Lee, Yes I am enjoying this challenge, especially since I found time to do 5 new photos (out of 6 possible) for this one :)
Olaf, Yes that is surely doable, and you are correct about the crop/shape, but I don't want to change it and upload again. Being lazy thats all.
Pregnant lady with lots of belly buttons/or with cactus-exo-skeleton or a alien pregnant lady ... can there be?!? LOL. Let the imaginations run wild.
Thanks all for the insight...

I think I thought it was some sort of skeleton as well. It's similar to a cactus skeleton. Very unique image for a strawberry. -- Victor

When I first saw this I thought it was some kind of organic exoskeleton armor that Alien would wear. The mutted colors really make this phot interesting! - Pops

When I scrolled down to read the comments on this, the image was cropped to a square (lower part of image) and abstracting from the seeds (all but one) and hairs, I saw a pregnant belly... Hmm, I kind of liked it better square, but that's just me...

WOW, I would never guess what it is. I thought that this is a kind of a snake. Great light
