I didn't think to apply ratings in the keywords. One other thing I do with my keywords is separate my public photos from my personal (family) photos. Anything that was shot with the intent of sharing publicly gets the keyword "stock", while photos of the kids don't. Hey, that’s not a bad idea! I didn’t think to apply ratings in the keywords.

If it was 3 then enter 123. If it is was 5 then enter 12345. If only 1 enter 1 and so on. Then to search for every photo that was 3 and about just search for 3 since it will find 3, 4 and 5. This method will not work if looking for just 3s. Just an idea that might work Niels Henriksen <a href="http://www.nielsp.ca/" rel="nofollow"> Light and Colour on Canvas </a> I don’t know Picasa, but I was thinking that with keywords you could might be able to rate them it you assign keywords as follows:

I can star photos, keyword them, and throw them in albums, but I can't rate them. I've thought about jumping over to Bridge a couple of times so I could get better flexibility, but that's going to be a whole lot of work.

I use an almost similar method to go back and revisit those “possible good ones”. I use Adobe Bridge C3 as my photo-cataloging tool. Besides being generous about adding keywords, I assign each photo a rating of ‘0’ to ‘5’. Fives (5) only happen after a photo has done well. Most of my good shots are rated as a 3 after the first pass. It’s difficult when you have a tough judge to get by. Whenever I need to see these, I use a saved search function “rating 3 and higher” to examine all photos, as this search functions always looks for new entries. I also rate (colour tag) photos when finished in a specific format’. This can be on whether they have been developed for printing or web and also where photos has been used.

I usually just shoot when the opportunity arises or I go out to take photos with no real direction. That’s a good idea — I might have to try putting a photo shoot list together.

I do however keep a 'to do' list of photo shoot ideas that I've had and would like to do in the future. Sadly, I have yet to do any of them. It's a great file for me to look at for inspiration when I'm feeling down, though. I don’t maintain a ‘to do’ list of photos to edit, because I have a system worked out for that by date.
