I have refrained from giving my pictures "titles" other than a brief description of what they are. So, instead of "The light of a kiss", it might be safer to title it something along the lines of "Barcelona, 2007". But despite the criticisms of it, it was a good "food for thought" image. I'm not sure how the idiomatic expression "food for thought" translates into Spanish.

Thanks to all for looking, comment and your opinions. Probably the caption is a mistake..., I've forget an elemental thing on photography: the camera don't see like our heard, one thing is the intention and a different thing is the image. When I'll finish this answer I want to post two versions of the picture I've shot after this one, with the real kiss, but I've choosed to post this one (#30) because I've liked more than the (#31), maybe because is usual to see pictures of a couple kiss, for me was nice..., giving a different touch and emotion the blow light between the couple, maybe the caption should be "The light before a kiss"..., anyway I was more influencied by the emotional effect than the aesthetic effect, and I'm not sure if I was wrong..., at least for myself. Thanks Ted for your advices but I don't like the pre-manufactured shots, even if I can reach a "perfect" picture I will be never satisfied with it, I prefer the spontaneaty of the life ..., if I'm lucky and I catch it, wonderful!, if not..., well, a good lesson for the next opportunity.
