Hi
The subject of this post has been bugging me for ages, but I thought I'd finally try and do something about it!
Ever since I've used Lightroom I've been tagging locations onto my photos in two different ways:
1. In the metadata / location box, e.g. ISO: GB, Country: United Kingdom, State / Province: North Yorkshire, City: York, Sublocation: York Minster
2. As a keyword hierarchy, e.g. United Kingdom > England > North Yorkshire > York > York Minster
Obviously this is duplication, which as my LR collection has grown over the years is giving me twice the work I need. So I'm thinking of binning one of these methods.
I'm erring towards keeping method #1 and binning method #2. Is that what other people would recommend? Are there any pros and cons to each?
All advice gratefully received
Rob
