Argh i went on a photography course in June and i have just finished editing all the pics

I got to the point that every time i opened lightroom i panicked and shut it down again - anyone else suffer from this problem??

Anyway if you fancy a look at the pics they are here

Thanks Chris it's a church that's no top of a hill ( i have no idea why) took ages to climb up there, but it was worth it as that's where the misty photos were taken from

I'm like that with lightroom only because my computer is not up to the task of running the program. I still have over a thousand photos from June to get through, not to mention countless other tasks!

You got some really good images in that collection. I'm still slowly plowing my way through the more than a thousand images I took at goodwood. I daren't open more than one image at a time, as I don't have the system memory. The ones I'm taking in the mean time are also needing processing.

Thanks jgs, i feel your pain

with lightroom the best way I have found with a load of images is quickly skim the thumbnails deleting the fuzzy/oof shots followed by the unnecessary ones. then I sort out the good from the poor of any duplicates (double shutter takes), then I crack into editing them. if there's a fair few of similar lighting/subject I might do one and then copy/paste settings across a small batch and then tweek each one individually and compare which is best. I might take one and dup. that and convert to b&w...
either way don't be afraid of a large no. of shots, divide them up into logical folders might also help i.e. days of a holiday or proceedings at a wedding etc.
with something like lightroom there's no excuse to have shots lingering on the hard drive untouched, there's probably some great shots that need to be released for all to see too!!

That's some good advice and normally i don't have a problem, maybe the problem was i didn't use my normal editing work flow.
