I see limited editions as a good thing, for a photographer. I don't want to sit around, show and discuss old photographs with visitors. As a photographer, I most enjoy creating new artwork instead of laboring over the past. I know painters who create new original works every year with the intent of selling what is painted in the winter and spring during the summer and fall. Always creating new and selling new.

Maybe that is photographer's problem with sales. Many keep their very good photographs for sale years after they started selling them which affects what visitors think of their "current" or newer photos. Could you imagine if Ford kept making a very good selling car from 1970 without modifications? They don't. They sell their newly designed cars and turn over designs yearly! :)
