Fighting with the image back log

It has been quite busy with other things during the early 2011 and I haven't had too much time or interest for the photography. One reason might be the huge amount of photos waiting to be sorted. That might sound familiar for you, too.

Having 15 000 RAW photos sitting on your hard disk takes up space and makes the back ups unnecessary large. I have been trying to sort photos but the problem is that after couple months I simply don't remember why the photo was taken.

So the only solution seems to have a strict rule to sort photos right after the import. Use the rating tool or something similar and mark those photos you want to keep. And delete all the rest.
