"Out of Control"

This is not really as bad as it might look. It's just sisters Lily and Panda, my two beagle puppies, playing in the backyard and roughhousing over a bone. No puppies were harmed!

Dear Ken:

Thanks for the Answer....this is almost exactly what I am doing, except that I put them first in folders on my main computer drive...(Kentucky, Spain, Los Angeles 1, 2, 3, 4) and then I move the whole folder, originals, print versions, post versions over to two external drives, deleting them from the computer...which works, sort of...but I really loose easy access to...Cambodia 2012 for example....it is long gone from my main computer, (which is different than my work computer...which also is kind of full).

Paul, I think, really edits his stuff down...but like you, I have found that family pictures that were done badly in 2004...now can magically come alive...because I am better at this PP stuff.

There may be no good answers for this problem.

Best Wishes, Traveller

Very nice. Puppies are always out of control - until they lay down to sleep.

Thanks for your kind words, Traveller. I shot approximately 20 frames over about a 10 or 15-minute period. So far, I haven't deleted any of them. I usually keep everything I shoot, unless it's just so bad that it has no possible redeeming qualities. Experience has shown me that sometimes you can come back to an image you initially rejected and find a different use for it. I just copy everything to an external hard drive and keep it. Then I reformat the memory card in the camera. Hard drive space is relatively cheap. Odds are that I will never use those other frames ... but if I delete them there is no chance I'll ever use them.

I like it! You really captured Puppy-tude...and the perfect moment.

But a question, and a serious one...how many frames did you shoot to capture this one?
If more than one frame...did you delete the others?

This is are real, real bad problem for me....and I am curious what you are doing.

Best Wishes, Traveller
