Question for you guys. How long do you typically go between taking photos, and doing anything with them (excluding professional work on a timeline)?
I have hundreds if not a few thousand photos going back to 2009 that I haven't done anything with yet. I find something enjoyable about going back to look at them and edit them months or years after they were taken. I'm noticing that now particularly with candid street photos I started taking with my Fuji X70 back in April when I got it. I feel like I see them differently, almost disconnected from the timeframe around when they were taken and can look at them a bit more objectively to decide what to delete and what's worth going further with.
Anyone else suffer from and/or benefit from doing the same?
- Usually I try to work on them right away. But sometimes I find my self editing photos from 2 3 years ago.pango
- im very slow. got a lot of candles burning. got a few thousand backlog. if i catch up ill go back and probably cull more w/ fresh eyes. thing is some old onesdeathboy
- on less than stellar glass and they look good until i zoom in and see the difference vs new glass. and makes me sad. good for online sharing thoughdeathboy
- a week or two. If I don't get to them quickly they'll just stack up and I'll rarely go back.formed
- I usually process and cull straight away, then file, backup and push my new fav's to my Apple TV shared folder so the appear in my screen saver.slappy
- ..always in a non-destructive app like lightroom so I can re-process later.slappy
