When titling your photographs for judges and competitions, you should follow these simple guidelines:
1. **Clarity**: Choose a title that clearly reflects the subject or theme of the photograph.
2. **Conciseness**: Keep the title brief and to the point.
3. **Relevance**: Ensure the title enhances understanding or emotional connection with the photograph.
4. **Avoid Clichés**: Steer clear of overly generic or clichéd titles unless they add unique context.
