Don't throw them away...... (1 Viewer)

.....I've been saying that for a while, don't throw away imperfect images. Yes there are cameras these days that take 20-30 shots per second, some can take that number in RAW format around 70MB per shot. If you review them before you actually download them to a drive you can keep the disk space to manageable levels. Just because some of your shots are too dark, too bright, too small, too noisy what ever. Don't ditch them save them. Post Processing Software is getting amazingly good these days and getting better. Here's an example of what I mean. Here's the original image of a Mourning Warbler taken in May 2018, the only one I've been able to get a shot of.

Here's a tweaked version of the Mourning Warbler. Not too shabby in my opinion.

It's not going to win any prizes but it's the only shot I have of one.

Disk space is cheap these days, the USB drives in particular. So just because your shots aren't perfect save them for another day.
