Those shots are quite nice. Getting the ball in the frame is always a biggie and you succeeded!


Regarding to the amount of pictures to take: I'm quite a conservative shooter myself. I tend to tryto get things right the first time and move on. When a do a photowalk with my photography friends I'm always the one who shot the least amount of frames. You say you tend to overshoot; why don't you like those pictures? Is it the composition, focus, exposure etc? If you see a common trend, work on that.


I second peety's suggestion of trying some photo workflow program. I use Aperture myself, but any program which gives you some option of sorting or rating will work. I believe there was a thread regarding this a few months back. Personally, I first get rid of the pictures which are OOF or have a bad exposure, next, I tend to rate from 3 to 5 stars (3 = slideshow if applicable, 4 = above average, 5 = Flickr-worthy). Finally I red flag pictures which need some hardcore editing in Photoshop and flag them green when done.


After each phase, all pictures can be found in a 3, 4 and 5 star folder, so I can fully concentrate on those and prioritize.
