Excellent point, the last photo I ever took of my father was a candid of him heading off to work. It is poorly composed and slightly out of focus but to my mother it's as good as any photo by HCB or Ansel Adams. If I had been shooting digital my first instinct would have been to delete it and try again another day, sadly another day never came. I think in the future people who regularly delete their digital non-keepers will realize they've not only thrown away many bad photos but also a lot of great memories.
