1. What is their viewing shelf life? Depends. Hobby or family? Hobby shots
have a short viewing life, family shots have a wide distribution.

2. Do you shot for a wall hanging? I used to frame and display shots on the wall of the room where I work, but I haven't updated them for a year or so.

3. Shoot to document your children's growth? My grandchildren think I have
three eyes; two normal eyes and a lens.

4. Do you plan on selling them? No, but make an offer.

5. What percentage of your images are deleted Most are deleted from
the hard drive, but I burn disks of the RAW version of all but the totally unusable.
You never know if a part of an image is salvageable.

6. Do you go on photo destinations (events) Yes, if there's a crowd,
there's an opportunity.

So How Do You Value Your Images? Extremely high. Way beyond mere money.

1. What is their viewing shelf life? Thousands of years

2. Do you shot for a wall hanging? I don't shoot wall hangings

3. Shoot to document your children's growth? No

4. Do you plan on selling them? Yes, if you can afford it

5. What percentage of your images are deleted None, they are all precious

6. Do you go on photo destinations (events) Not with the rift raft
