Hi Tina,

May I ask a heretical question: are you perhaps taking too many photos, just 
because it is so easy with digital? You mention a figure of 16000 from your 
Cuba trip, That is more than I take in a year. Now, I realize that I am just 
an amateur while you are a pro, and I also understand that for your stock 
business you need some slight variations of each image, but still the number 
seems excessive. From the way you talk about the editing process, it seems 
to lead to an intolerable burden afterwards, when editing them. Perhaps a 
change from this machine-gun approach would be good for your health?

The uncertainties in editing must pale beside the uncertainties in 
shooting...

Cheers,
Nathan
