I've been thinking of a title for this photograph and have decided on "Gigolo".

I didn't know what "gilolo" meant, so I googles it:

Wikipedia:

"A gigolo is a male escort or social companion who is supported by a woman in a continuing relationship, often living in her residence or having to be present at her beck and call. The gigolo is expected to provide companionship, to serve as a consistent escort with good manners and social skills, and often, to serve as a dancing partner as required by the woman in exchange for the support (which is contrary to typical norms). Many gifts such as expensive clothing and an automobile to drive may be lavished upon him. The relationship may include sexual services as well, when he also would be referred to as "a kept man".

The term gigolo usually implies a man who adopts a lifestyle consisting of a number of such relationships serially, rather than having other means of support.

The word gigolo may be traced to a first use as a neologism during the 1920s as a back formation from a French word, gigolette, a woman hired as a dancing partner."

Now what did you mean, Mandrake? 

Oksana, my compliments for your profound research!
Ron, now I get your approach... but let's think of something else

Now what did you mean, Mandrake? 

Exactly that.  The flowers speak for themselves.  I think it obvious which is the gigolo and which is the lady keeping him.

Interesting thought, Mandrake.

another option... 

You've changed the colours somewhat and made it look more crispy this time, but I liked your first crop better.

You're right Oksana, the man is obsessed with things to be straight, this started with my horse/mule/donkey and goes on with this flower

No, it started way before your horse/mule/donkey and we love him for that, lol

Yeah, I think I'm starting to like this pro And I'm sure I can learn a lot from his experience!

This would be crop version:

Yes, but Lanterna Chinesa always hang straight down as they should.

I totally knew that you are going to say that, Mandrake. LOL.

I did it just to show that you should try see things at different angle and think out of the box.
