[QUOTE="stmv, post: 795042, member: 10038"] So,, 4 days in Vegas ,, and most likely around a 1000 shots. I seem to take around 250 a day even when I am busy, I suspect on my hikes the number of shots will rise to around 300-500 a day, which is kinda mind numbing. So,, 9 days in NV/CA/UT will yield around 2500-3500 pictures to sort/pick/edit. I suspect it will take about a month just to finish editing the photos. I am not editing at ALL during the 10 days, just too tired, and why waste the time. One task is to upload to the computer and backup daily to the secondary drive. I always back up during trips. Could have that one time that the laptop fails, falls and breaks, is stolen, etc. and imagine how mad you would be loosing 4000 pictures and 10 days of your shooting life. I have already lost an expensive lens due theft (and right at my deductable so no insurance payout). I have scanned the shots, and quite excited, a goal would be 40 - 50 portfolio shots. and maybe a 200-400 keepers (interesting shots, but not up to the portfolio level). so you think,, wow 4000 shots and only 40 portfolio shots.. yup.. 1% portfolio shots,, is probably right. I like to get about a 10-20% print range, but often really 5% print range (pictures that I would want on my wall). and am totally happy if 1/100 is a portfolio shot. I don't actually track the %'s of shots that make this category,, and well, partly, because over time your standards change, and what was portfolio level 10 years ago may fall to printable level now (but that is also due to sheer volume, and you have to keep shorting, picking). I like to organize by top 100 top 500 top 1000 but the top 100 is actually hard to do,, not sure if I really have a 100 photos that I would consider that level.... maybe after this trip :cool: [/QUOTE]
