RE: Why you shouldn't delete crappy photos you take with a digital camera.

Good work.
However, I take issue with your choice of "crappy" as a category for your photos. In all my time messing with digital photography, "crappy" is the category given to heavily grained/blurred shots. The shot you referenced was quite salvageable in any photo editor through merely adjusting the levels and adjusting the bias of the colors.
The lesson here is not about deleting bad photos, but about learning where to define the limits for salvageable and unsalvageable photos, taking into account the ability to adjust photos in software.
