Thanks, all...glad to know there are others in my same boat. It's hard for me to know that someone else would really see what I had in mind with certain shots...hard for them to see the diamond in the apparent, unedited rough. At some point it might be worth my time to have someone try it for me.
I used to think the same but I think that if someone you trust can't see the value of an image (after being educated a bit on recoverability, silhouettes, bracketing, under exposing highlight retention etc), then there probably isn't any value in the image. It takes having the right fit for it to be the case but as DONIV said, if it's questionable they should keep it. They should be able to tell if you may have been trying something creative that may turn out interesting once edited or cropped or whatever.
I used to believe that culling was something I had to personally do. Then I realized I culled to a stronger set with MT's help than on my own and of course now she is doing it without input from me. Occasionally she'll ask for my opinion between a few shots just to confirm her own thoughts and invariably the one she would have picked is the one we agree on after discussing.
