In Lightroom, as part of my selection process, each location’s best images have their own colour label. Before labelling my images, I used the P and X tools on my keyboard to either flag or hide my better and worse images, to help me make smaller selections with my colour labels. When I was selecting my best images, I was looking for straight images, with clear and sharp focus. I was also looking for images that were the correct exposure – this was an issue with the bright but cloudy weather – I found both over and under exposure in my images. Also, I was looking for images with a composition which was even and balanced – however this can be helped in my editing process.
