I do not take a huge number of photos, too many years with medium 
format/sheet film and I do not take many portraits....

However I did display over 1000 images (just over 10% of my take) during 
2013.....a mixture of PAW, flowers and Ted's assignments and all on Leica.

Mine too.
I am pretty ruthless at deleting pictures I don't like, having learned that 
having a box of slides with only a couple of really nice images in it was a 
pain. I started throwing away unliked slides and do the same with digital 
(when I make time).
My M9 took just 139 pictures in 2013, compared with 1300 normally. I bought 
a Fuji X Pro 1 at the end of 2012 and since my subjects nowadays are often 
grandchildren running about in poor light the Fuji has been a frequent 
choice instead of the M9.
Fuji X-Pro 1 ........ 1164
Leica DMR ............102
Olympus OM-D......511
Leica M....................53
Nikon D3x               138
