To import photo I use Rapid-Photo-Downloader [1]. I really like this
program import method. There you can chose the entirely path and photo
name from various option like year, month, day, hours of the shot,
event, and other photo metadata. I really enjoy an import method like
that and it would be great see this features in Shotwell.
