... were easy with databases. photography? not so much.
i've never really been a big fan of naming photographs.
coming from the world of music, where only the limited realm of programmatic music provided meaning for the listener, i like to leave it up to the viewer to decide if there is any meaning inherent in a picture, or if it's just a "cool pic."
blogs, on the other hand, want a title, and i've started doing it.
come to find, i'm not very good at it. i still don't like titles. one of my fav photogs (a fella called aeric gujon (check him out... he's awesome)) has a really great non-relational way to title his pics, and that's why i think it works.
i dunno' - i just don't like providing meaning or stating the obvious. some pics have meaning to me, but why should i tell you what it means to me? or if there even is a meaning? does that guide help you to glean something out of a picture? hmph...
