Hey, I posted this in a series of shots from an engagement shoot last week in weddings, but need help choosing a title for it. I am considering entering it in the current DSS challenge.

Other suggestions for improvement would be welcomed as well...

Any ideas?

    I dunno Elaine....."I don't think I could do better than Swartzy!" seems like an awfully wordy title....

    I'm just assuming that those are train tracks in which case, "Love on the line"

    But I like Swartzy's better anyway :)

    "Eternal" or "Endless Love" playing on the poles disappearing into the distance. (If you have to explain it, its probably no good rolleyes1.gif)

    In any event, I like Swartzy's idea best.

    Love the photo, btw. It projects a feeling of blissful happiness.

    'Kiss On My List'

    My friends wonder why I call you all the time,
    What can I say?
    I don't feel the need to give such secrets away
    You think maybe I need help though I know i am right, all right
    I'm just better off not listening to friends advice

    When they insist on knowing my bliss,I tell them this
    When they want to know what the reason is
    I only smile when I lie, then I tell them why

    Because your kiss, your kiss is on my list
    Because your kiss, your kiss is on my list
    Because your kiss is on my list of the best things in life
    Because your kiss, your kiss is on my list
    Because your kiss, your kiss I can't resist
    Because your kiss it's what I miss when I turn out the lights

    I go crazy wondering what there is to really see
    Did the night just take up your time, cause it means more to me
    Sometimes I forget what I'm doing, I don't forget what I want,what I want
    Regret what I've done, regret you? I couldn't go on

    But if you insist on knowing my bliss,I'll tell you this
    If you want to know what the reason is
    I only smile when I lie, then I'll tell you why

    Because your kiss, your kiss is on my list
    Because your kiss, your kiss I cant resist
    Because your kiss is what I miss when I turn out the lights

    Very nice photograph in some respects, Jeff. Very 'photographerly'. Very carefully, thoughtfully done. That's a trademark. Nice mild, smooth B&W. Excellent composition. However, I can't easily relate the setting to the action. And I keep having to find them again in all the space when I look away. Then, you are not involved, so neither are we. For such a highly emotional intention that's an anticlimax.

    I know, yes, I know. It's the 'genre', it's what the clients want. (Like the seniors' suburban sex-kittens.) It might not be what I'd want, though, might it, nor others? The 'genre' is too cute, cliched and kitsch for such a serious and profound item in life.

    In fact, as I've commented before, I hate public kissing, hate it even more when it's posed for the camera. Ughhhh!!! A long story that you probably wouldn't want me to unpack in this thread.

    But that's my reaction. A humble viewer. For what it's worth. Discard it. Delete it.
