Rate Photos
The number one method I use to organize my photos is rating them. By applying star ratings, I determine the shots that are worth keeping, the ones I want to edit later, and the ones I’m ready to share with others. Pairing ratings with other metadata, such as events for example, I can immediately view the best photos captured during a particular vacation or holiday.
To rate a photo:
In the Media Browser, with View > Details enabled, click the gray stars that appear below a photo to set a rating from 1 to 5 (FIGURE 3.24).
FIGURE 3.24 Apply a rating to identify your higher-quality photos.
Select one or more images and click the stars under one of the photos to apply the same rating to them all.
Select one or more images and press a number key between 1 and 5 corresponding to the rating you want to apply.
