Good question. Most titles are descriptive and not really necessary.
I have given all my photographs on this site a title, mainly out of habit. Some are totally unnecessary (snow, tree etc) and with some I try to convey how I saw whatever I photographed, probably to explain why I took the shot. (Fairy Tale Tree)
I think titles can give that little bit extra to a photograph; a sense of fun for instance, or a feeling of unease. And I suppose they can also detract from the photo; a banal title can 'spoil' a good shot, I think.
I haven't given it too much thought so far, but you made me think!
