How often do you all go through your digital files and purge? I look back and realize a lot of my digital photos are unnecessary garbage, it amazes me how when i shoot film I take high quality photos I want, whereas when I review my digital shots I end up cringing that I even took a large majority of the pictures

Do you guys purge your digital shots often?
Do you find yourself reflecting back at how awful some photos are that you took and unnecessary such as landscapes and random street photography? or even people you don't even interact with anymore

I see why film is the superior method

Never, I just buy more storage. Even if a photo is dogshit I can still use it to learn from, and re-take a better version in the future. I have never deleted a photo since I started shooting, I'm currently at 7TB.

i'm pretty aggressive when it comes to purging. instead of deleting one by one, i just select the pictures that somewhat decent. then select the rest and delete all permanently
