WRT the title, I'm usually the same as you - look to the photo in and of itself first, and comment on that. I guess my point is that even knowing the title didn't help me get into the photo in a meaningful way. Maybe I need more time with it. Or maybe I just don't get it. That's likely more of a comment on me than it is Shel's photo. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
