Work on two things; first, make a higher percentage of them "keepers" and then edit yourself harshly to find the real "stunners".

Lately, when I post on Flickr, I try to look for three to five images per 100 taken and don't show the rest. In the case of those images with the tire marks, I'd try to find the most powerful one and use only that. Take other images of the car in different settings, different light, etc.

I also suspect that you're going to get draw deep into Photoshop after you get to know it. Start budgeting.

wow that is some great piece of advice, and i really appreciate. You just made me realize that i really only should pick the best couple because the other ones are nice but not as powerful, so there is no point to keep them. i can always take them again with such a beautiful camera.


Thank you all and hopefully as time goes by you guys can see my pictures improving!
