Editing of the Photos...all the Photos
After you take photos...you have to cull and edit the photos. When you take a reasonable amount of images, no big deal! If you maybe go on a trip and take over 2,000 photos, then it might take six month to go through and edit them. You just might have "finish editing trip photos" on your to-do list for 6 weeks in a row. You just maybe had to force yourself to edit photos for 30 minutes a day 4 weeks in a row to even make a dent. So another Covid-19 quarantine project is editing photos from a trip I took in October.
And so I finally got 2,000 photos down to 750(ish), not including iPhone photos. It took three days to export them all from Lightroom (old computer). And I still have to go through those and select the best of the best. But I did a happy dance when the editing was finished!
And I learned a valuable lesson that I 100% won't remember the next time I get to go out and take pictures. And that lesson is: do not take over 2000 photos of anything ever again. Remember the editing. REMEMBER the editing. This is especially important - do not take over 595 photos of a fisherman sitting in a boat. For the love of everything - you do not need 595 photos of a fisherman. Maybe limit yourself to 25. 25 is really plenty! It doesn't matter if the bird moves its head. (Although...I mean...maybe you do need all the bird head moves? They are kind of cool...)
