Same here. And I surely don't need a print of every frame I shoot. The 3,000 shots I took last weekend are going to turn in to several groups of 20-30 each for several potential customers, with a lot of overlap, so maybe 50-60 total shots. Then another maybe 300-400 will end up in a "everything but the kitchen sink" gallery so the drivers, families, friends, etc., can see the on-track action for "their boy/girl". Since I'm not the best at panning and such, probably 1,000 to 1,200 will go in the trash after a glance for glaring technical or composition issues. A similar number will go in the second cull. The final cull is to pick the best of similar shots, which is part of what I missed when I made my 2007 Petit le Mans gallery; several more of those should've been culled. Now, why in the world would I want prints of 2,000 photos I don't think are up to snuff? The only bunch I /might/ want small prints of would be the ones that survived the first two culls. -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
