By not providing a title you force the viewer to look closer. I'd say all but those who voted 4 and above did take a closer look. By presenting images without title if also forces the photographer to produce an image that is very clear in the message.
The message in this image is not that clear though the impression I got was 'Red Hot' or 'Sizzle'.
Keep shooting and keep trying without a title or if you choose to use a title try not to use it to lead the viewer but to give the image life/meaning (as you see it of course).

Thanks for all your comments... I wanted to make a point about pictures without title, the point is: peolple need help to see things.
With a title like "metallic petal" this picture would have got a decent score (maybe 5.1 :), what do You think?
The reflection is so "good" that metal disappears :), so maybe the title could have been: "invisible metal" :)
Thanks again! |

| I am not sure what your subject is. A title may have helped. |

| Honestly, I can't tell what this image is. It looks like a poppy, but poppies aren't metal. Maybe a metal poppy sculpture? Interesting as an abstract but not enough clarity for me to make out what it might be. With no title for help... |

| ??? This is getting a low score simply because I have no idea what it is. |

| Although an interesting composition, I'm left wonder what I'm looking at and where the metal is, rather than the photo actually saying "metal"... |

| I am intrigued, and have no idea as to how to score this, since I cannot find the metal in this photo. Kindly enlighten me and I will score it accordingly. |

| i feel it should've been cropped out more. probably about 1-4 inches above the metal would look nice. |

| Maybe I'm missing the metal aspect, but this appears to be a photo of a poppy. |

| I really am confused with this shot. Especially without a title. This seems organic, not metallic to me. If I am missing something, I apologize. |

| This has an interesting pattern of lights and darks. I'm just not sure what it is. I like the overall effect, though. |

| Looked again & saw the knife! I suspect that many will not. It's a good image; the reflection is too perfect to make it clear that there's a knife in there. |
