Thanks Shelley and Troy.
Yes – it was a funny day as most of my shots didn’t really turn out as expected. I had Flash Exposure Compensation set to +2/3 and so blew out a few highlights.
Troy gave us an interesting run down on how he tries to get his shots right “in camera” to minimise post processing work and how he then uses Lightroom to categorise and catalogue his (extensive!) collection of photos. This is a great idea for searching on the keywords and metadata to easily find stuff later on.
I chipped in to add that after I have uploaded my photos, I use Adobe Bridge and allocate 1 * to those to be deleted, 4 **** to those to be processed and 5 ***** to those that really leap out at you as keepers – I usually only have one of these!
I then Filter on all the 1 * and do a mass delete, hence Troy's wry comment!
Cheers
Dennis
