[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 847861, member: 50197"] No, I'm retired, so I have time to go through them myself. I try and at least cull them on the same day I shoot them, unless I get home very late in the day. I have gotten rather ruthless during the culling process, which may be a problem. On a few occasions, I have gone back and edited an image I had originally decided wasn't worth editing. Had I deleted them out of hand, that would not have been an option. I remember one in particular. I edited several images from a string of exposures. l liked a lot of what I saw in many of them, but they lacked a certain something I couldn't put my finger on. I went back and looked at some of the others in the string and identified one that had promise. After a fair amount of editing, I had what turned out to be one of my best images ever. It all came down to a fairly subtle different pose by the two birds.
