I can't see it when I do it, but I can see it when others do it. Titles that don't fit the image cause the viewer to look for things that aren't there, and don't allow them to take in the image for what it is.
You may have shot this on a snowy day, but there's no evidence of this in the image. I like the image, but I was at sixes and sevens trying to reconcile the title to the image.
Had this been titled "Abstract #27", or summat, I would have been able to view it without the preconception that I went in with.
There's symbology in this that I'm not going to comment on, but it is subtly played both in the image and the title. If that was the intent, well done. The perspective isn't the way I think most of us would immediately notice.

Thanks, Jenn. I should know better than to
take one of Don's shot at face value, but bow that you mention it...
