Well, you can use this:

http://tools.wmflabs.org/catscan2/quick_intersection.php?lang=commons&project=wikimedia&cats=Red+flowers%0D%0ABicycles&ns=6&depth=5&max=30000&start=0&format=html&redirects=&norun

which will give you one image. It has a bicycle and red flowers.

However, if you push the category depth past 7 you get false positives,
because the category tree is horribly broken on Commons.

Cheers,
Magnus
