that it's much easier to do it up front.
The other problem is that, with aircraft, the notice saying what it is
is usually a long way away from the good point for an overall picture,
which is a little less true for flowers :-)
It's a freebie. Do as you like, but sometimes
it's nice not to have to
think or seek, especially when the information is right there at hand just
for the clicking. Even when I'm not dealing with 16,000 images at a pop,
it's easier.
I did an entire museum a little while ago - the trick I used was to do
two seperate sets of photos, the good camera taking high-res shots of
every artifact and the small compact running off lots of context
photos ("here is the entire cabinet") and pictures of labels, etc. Put
the two sets together, sort by timestamp, and you're done.
[Or would be had I not forgotten to set one of them to daylight
savings. Still, it was a nice first attempt...]
