Why is it feminine?

Images is feminine in French because it derives from the Latin *imago* (feminine), which was grammatically feminine in the Latin third declension and retained that gender through Old French into modern French. The feminine ending *-e* in French also reinforces this classification, though the gender was already established through Latin inheritance rather than determined by the suffix.
