Hello fellow Photozoners,
My image collection is somewhat getting out of hand. I wonder if anyone of you has a good way of cataloguing images om their computer.
I had a system for my slides, but I Ãt's not really working anymore. I catalogued the slides like:
So, I had numbers like 01a-0001. '01' means coast/beach 'a' means sunsets and 0001 is the number of the image. I have 12 different catagories for the coast ranging from storms, close-ups, recreation, rescue, vegetation(dunes), etc. For other subjects I had different numbers, for example Dutch towns and villages start with '04' and so on.
I don't need the date mentioned in the name of the images, like some people do.
Hope to hear how you catalgue your images.
Best wishes,
Reinier
