Peter,

   I store my photos in a directory named by the date and the purpose of the serious of photographs.  When my hard drive gets too full, I burn my photo directories to CDROM, then I delete them. 

   I take my CDROM and I go...

$ ls -lR /media/cdrecorder > JHGphotos-20060105

   I write "JHGphotos-20060105" on the CDROM.  I use grep to search the database.

$ grep -ri "Grey Cup" .

   This gives me the CDROM and the date, as well as the directory I stored them in.  Needless to day, I buy top quality CDROMs for this, and I store them out of the light.
