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...
