Thanks for the Seattle tip! I'm up there somewhat often as part of my team is there. I have done the Columbia Tower but not that bridge.
As for taking fewer photos, I like to capture as much as possible and then I distill that down later into my photo sets/stories. I want a big funnel to choose from and not have to do that on the fly. This is my hobby and passion and I love it. :)
As for the nearly identical photos aspect - I always take a few shots & similar compositions of the same thing to make sure that at least one shot is super in focus.

I get it, I do the same thing when I shoot digital. I'm just recommending that those photos never make it past the Previous Import section in Lightroom. If you're aiming for tack-sharp focus, it should be quite straightforward to do a very quick culling then. Also, please say hi to Chris Burrows for me; I haven't seen him since we worked on Visual Studio together about a million years ago :)
