the picture of a woman may be very similer to her, but it is never the woman herself, nor is it something which has a connection with her. This is why it is not haram to look without desire at the awrat(private parts) of a woman in her picture, while it is haram to look at her very body. Nevertheless, because the picture of a woman is like her, it is makruh to look at the picture. Similarly, it is necessary to respect the like of a respected being because of its close proximity, even if it is not the same.
