If a photographer is deleting 95-99% of the images that he takes, that photographer should either take fewer images or improve his skills. I know and travel with a number of serious amateur and professional photographers (not shooting for clients, but shooting on spec for images that they hope to sell) and they delete very few, if any. First, the technical and artistic quality is good to begin with. Second, the time required to do so can be better spent on post-processing or shooting more subjects.
