I have to admit that I do not edit the way I should. And I often think that
if I had thrown out all the slides that had small problems with them because, I
would be very disappointed right now. Until digital came along, a slight flaw
in a slide was enough to relegate it to the wastebasket. Today, a quick scan
and some work in photoshop can turn a throwaway into a real keeper..
