The title "Untitled" also added to it a LOT of meaning when I looked at it AFTER I posted that first comment btw I hope that it was planned. xD

Thanks! I will admit I don't see the significance in the title. xD What is it?

The model looks lost, confused, and just plain defeated. The title being as such, it's as if his life and emotions are untitled himself.

Then again, I could also be wrong in interpreting the intentions. There are just so many reasons for this photo to be how it is. Could have just killed a man. Could be preparing to. Could be getting ready to take his dog out back to relieve him of old age or because he bit a neighbour or a child. There are just so many things... to see in this picture. Yet, strangely, Untitled seems to fit each and every way one could look at it.

That's amazing insight. I actually did title it "Untitled" because I wanted the viewer to draw their own conclusion, and I was afraid any title I could give it would suggest too much. Glad "Untitled" ended up working in and of itself!

I had real worry for the model in this picture and can't stop myself from saying, don't let him do it!! <3

Good work.
