That's one of the interesting tradeoffs of the PESO / GESO question. It seems that artists are often the worst judges of their own work. Last week I went for a walk in the park next to my office to take a short break to clear my head. When I got home, I wasn't thrilled with any of the shots, but my workflow is to go through my photos and rate them 1-3: 1: unredeemable 2: technically bad, but if someone really likes something about the shot, it's still recognizable 3: No major problems the rating eventually go up to 4: worth posting on the web 5: worth printing Once I've thrown away the bad shot, maybe done some simple post processing, and move the totally uninspiring "meh" shots aside, I have my girlfriend rate the pictures. She went through and liked five of them enough to rate them 4 starts, including two from the "meh" folder. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157615745581379/ > > Looking good.
