I was thinking the same thing: 1,000 photos over 5 years. And do you

It's how some people roll. When I was working in photo labs it was quite
amazing how many people didn't empty their card onto a computer and would
only take the card out of the camera when they had to put it into a kiosk
to
make prints for friends.
It wasn't unusual to have a customer make prints so that they could
delete
the files to free up room on the card so that they could keep shooting,
and
were continuously deleting "bad" or older files to make room for new
ones.
Very few people are actually interested in this sort of stuff. Often I
think
they have better mental health. The people I truly wonder about are the
ones
who have their files backed up six ways from Sunday, like as if at some
point in the future people will actually care about their boring
pictures.
Then it stands to reason that the very best adjusted folks are those
who when passing you will stop, look intently at you and adopt a
stance, hold their empty hands together and shape their fingers to
describe a rectangular box, then say "Click! Kazeeek!" and walk on.

Makes sense. Why waste pixels when we all know the best images have already
been taken by the pros!
