Caption

Hi, is it correct to say - as a caption of a magazine - "Short break in New York" or is it more natural with the indefinite article "A short break in New York"? Thx!
  

Top answer

Magazines don't have captions; photographs do. Are you speaking of a photograph caption or a magazine article title?

I'm speaking of a magazine article title. Sorry for the confusion.

I'd use the article: A Short Break in New York

It's not very catchy, though. New York in a Flash. New York Whirlwind. Chilling in New York.
