As you can see, the picture it paints is disturbing and I feel she would be horrified has she seen pics of me in that way with another woman.
How "you" feel she would feel about it and how she would feel about it are two different things. You mentioned you stewed about it when you found out. Obviously she picked up on your tone and demeanor and went into damage control. Can you blame her?
Can it be that you have your wife on a pedestal (motherly) and are threatened by another side of her that you are not quite prepared to deal with?
