Titles
Usually coming at the end, and part of the overall package of producing an image, is usually the question of giving it a title. If you decide a title is necessary, which begs the question is it necessary, do you give it one as an afterthought or spend some time trying to find a word or a phrase to just match the picture or perhaps convey the mood or feeling that YOU had when taking it.
The vast majority of images are record shots of places, people, nature or things and which are presented as such to the viewers, so it's fairly simple to title them as, 'St Paul's, 'Liitle Jimmy at Xmas', 'Bluebells' etc,etc.
Some resort to numbering pictures, Seaside#1 and so on, and I suppose that's OK if you are able to see the other seaside images ad infinitum.
Do you think titles are necessary, useful or of interest? After all it's the picture that counts.
