I'm not a brilliant photographer, my hands shake a bit much for that, but digital cameras (especially ones that compensate a bit for the shaking) and not having to develop every photo you take is doing wonders for me increasing the number of shots I take. And it's only via practice that improvement comes.
I always found amusing a bit from one of Barbara Hambley's books where the protagonist was said to locate material from a pile on her desk by the principle of geological stratification (or similar).
My visual memory isn't totally brilliant, though if I concentrate I can get overview visualisations of memories, but can't 'zoom in' on detail. My memory of things via auditory channels is varied. Conversations are not guaranteed to go to long term memory so people asking me to do something are advised to send me an email. But I'm pretty good at remembering tunes, and sometimes lyrics of songs. Though not always artist and title, though that's more often because the radio stations don't link them with the song so much these days.
My desk is also chaos, though I don't know if I could find things on it as much.
