  This screenshot is evidence of me rating my photographs to the photographs which are suitable that I can use to edit and improve. This screenshot also evidences me sorting the photographs into appropriate folders of locations, this helps with organisation and keeping everything neat and professional.  This further allows me to narrow down my images to the top 10 images that I would like to edit, I have done this through rating them 1-5 stars, this will make it easier because I can further filter the images to the 5 star rated images.  Edited images   Before editing   Evidence of editing techniques used
