I do not name my images.
In this reference catalog I leave the original capture number. It is
not laziness. It is not artiness. I photograph what I see because I
see it not to name it but to capture it. To name it would label it,
change my view of it. My impression is the photograph.
Anyone can call an image what they choose. Their choice. Not mine.
Should I name img. 3772 " the barrier". Is it? Is it a wall? Does it
give shelter? Does it keep in or keep out? Is the surf or the sand
the focal point? That's not up to me. I shoot it because I see it…
to share it.
Name an image what you choose, change the name as it suits you.
Keep the image as your own.
