I like this very much. I would have tried to bring out the right hand shadow more....very easily done.

I dunno... it was in my head. It's actually the name of a Led Zeppelin Album. (external link) I was listening to a song from that album while I was editing.

Other than the fact that there's a door, yes. (I'm horrible at naming/titling photographs.)

I don't think it's 'nitty picky' at all. It is undoubtedly a first rate picture, but the title has no bearing on it and has one looking for a meaning that isn't there. If the title has no relevance to the picture, why title it at all? The picture is more than capable of standing on its own.

Titles can be very influential to a person's opinion of a photo. I suppose in this case the the title refers to a door, and while the inspiration came from elsewhere, it does perhaps cause the viewer to wonder why the door is still open a crack.. maybe somebody just snuck inside! However, in this case, you asked, and the metaphorical curtain was pulled back to reveal.. something mundane.
