Sorry, the last paragraph of my reply was incomplete. I meant to conclude:

This leaves the question of whether the work you are cataloguing is the
database in production, or the photographs that comprise it (if indeed this
distinction can be made). It might be arguable that what you are cataloguing
is the collection of images (in this case of Joe E. Blow), rather than
the database that will eventually include both the images and metadata
relating
to them. If this is the case, then you might want to devise a title for that
collection for the 670 |a, rather than citing the as-yet-unfinished
database.


Hope this is of some help.

Regards
Richard
