I'm such a completist. When I get to like a band, I have this compulsion to own everything they have ever made.
On Flickr, I'm still discovering the optimum way for me to organise my photos. I love keeping a chronology of photos, especially when travelling. They tell a story all of their own, serving as the journal I never wrote.
Initially, I thought I'd like to put every photo ever up on Flickr. I could probably do that eventually. But it doesn't make for a very interesting photostream for others to look at.
Its probably more important to me that people see my photos, and either like them or give me some feedback so I can improve.
I should probably be more discerning. Its such a lossy record, though!
Perhaps I could put an exhaustive set up to bore friends and family with, and a small subset of exceptional or "finished" shots on the public photostream. Then, what if there is one I judge as bad, which others might like.
I hope I don't go catatonic over this dilemma!
