Whoa! Some of us (alright me) need this sort of advice. For far too long I've used my MX on 'this is how it is photos' as in the photos you take when renovating a car, so that when you put it back together you remember where each bit goes.
I am moving on into photos that friends comment on and say WOW! You may know it all, I don't.

Since I've formally retired, I won't have to submit my "books" for judging anymore. A "jury" from your local Guild should do the final culling. The very first "edit" of my submissions to a Guild jury saw them cull 541 photos down to 87, 31 of which were deemed only "marginal." Other than the jury steward, you don't know who your jurists were, which helps you keep your cool at future Guild meetings. **Each "book" should be "refreshed" frequently, keeping abreast of modern "techniques," including digital offerings.
