Critique #18 *Open Theme*: 5 Participants

Thanks All - I enjoyed this experience and reading and learning fromyour interpretaions of the images posted.

So a little about the photo I posted.

I was interested to see whether people think titles are important. For me they are sometimes integral to the image, sometimes not.

In this case, the title "Out of Time" was an important part of the overall concept for the shot. It came to me as I was sitting at the cafe table below the image, and our catch up with friends was drawing to a close i.e. we were nearly "out of time".

Then I realised that the exit sign could mean "out" and it was also pointing to the clock - "time". and of course the the clock had no hands - it too was "out of time".

There was nothing to do but take the photo right then from my seat.

By the way the full text on the board read "in the company of good wine, food and friends"
