Title Please

Looking for a Title for this image. Not wanting to get too Political, but was thinking of "The Native, and the Outlander"

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

hard to be a native with that grave monument there, the tent is in the background. it may be better just to call it whatever this was and why it was set up. i don't have any good names because the main subject is that thing in the front and not the stuff in the background.

My wife just crafted the perfect title for her novel by going on-line and googling something like "how to write a book title" ( not sure the exact words)....but there was a tutorial and many suggestions. You may find success with that.

 

Interesting subjects....the owner and the settler!....definitely has a political connotation. This conflict runs deep here in Oz.
I like your title....it's non-confrontational.

Thanks Mike, The tent is a First Nations Teepee, and the monument in the foreground is a WW1 "Cairn" to commemorate the local Soldiers who were killed during that time.
I guess in a way it is Christian and Native American, just trying to merge both cultures into the title.

then there's your title... but its long. its just that all we see is a tower and can't read the sign due to a bit of motion blur and the tent is behind stuff. i would still name it after the monument and explain why there is a tent there.

Will admit the sign is pretty weather beaten and difficult to read, but like the idea of naming it after the Cairn and explaining why the teepee is nearby.

The Native Teepee was put in place after this Provincial Park was abandoned by the Government, and First Nations protesters moved in to "Educate" the local populace of the concerns the Aborigines had regarding what intentions the Government had about the land itself.
The "Vespra" Boys war monument was abandoned in the 50s and it was only in the last couple of years that the local people have once again on 11th of Nov commemorated their sacrifice.

 

The first catchy thing hat popped into my head was this: "Tippecanoe and Tyler, Too."
