Re: PAW - Sunset, 6:06PM

Not quite.  I was observing a disconnect between a posted image and the
~description~ of events that were taking place, not the title.  Had the
poster (Frantisek) not described the scene as volunteers helping the
handicapped at a fair, I'd not have commented as i did.

And, in my own defense LOL, this is an abstract, not meant to directly
depict reality in any way, although, if one were to check the
sunrise/sunset table it would be seen that the sun set at exactly the time
noted in the title, 6:06 PM.  Anyway, the posted photo is just another of
my pretentious images, poking a little fun at myself and all the silly or
unimportant images we see every day.  That some people enjoy it is a bonus.

Thanks for your comments.

 Hi, Shel

 Definately a diffreent take on sunsets. I really like it for being an
abstract shot with graphic elements that contrasts ech other somewhat; the
near horizontal lines of light and shade, and the structure in the wall. 

 However, there's nothing in this pic that points to the setting actually
being a sunset. It might as well be illumination from a sodium street lamp,
or maybe even a tungsten light source. You must decide for yourself if this
is a weakness in this shot; I just brought it up since you were very
insistent on the lack of connection between motif and title in a recent PAW
from somebody else.

 Personally I think titles in general is a good thing when it can be used
to direct the viewer's thought in the directions intended by the
photographer, and it works for me in this case.

 Well spotted, Shel.

This suspiciously looks like the job a local lab did to my films before 
I had enough of it and bought a digicam ;-)

Just kidding. Nice shot.
