I took the following images and printed them out 4 to a page of A4 (so A6) and spread them out on a table and from there, made my edit. I made two edits and then asked for help from Andy and he then helped me narrow it down to a really tight edit of 20. I then took that edit home with me and looked at it periodically over the weekend, after some further reflection I still couldn’t find anything I didn’t like about it. The week after I showed some of my peers that edit and they then put three of the discarded images back in. I had become fairly attached to the edit as it was so I admit it was hard to change it but I’m glad I didn’t just reject their suggestion out of hand because I think those extra three images certainly don’t harm the edit.
