Step 18:
There's a third view you can use to view
your images that can help you in situations
where you need to find the one single,
solitary, best shot from a shoot (for example,
let's say you want to post one single shot
from your bridal shoot on your studio's
blog, so you need to find that one perfect
shot to run with your post). That's when
you use Compare view—it's designed to
let you go through your photos and find
that one, single, best shot. Here's how it
works: First, select the first two photos
in your Selects collection (click on the
first photo, then Command-click [PC:
Ctrl-click] on the second image, so they're
both selected). Now press the letter
C
to
enter Compare view, where the two photos
will appear side by side (as shown here),
then press Shift-Tab to hide the panels and
make the photos as large as possible. Also,
you can enter Lights Out mode now, if you
like (press the letter L twice).
Step 19:
So, here's how this works, and this is a
battle where only one photo can win:
On the left is the current champion
(called the Select), and on the right is
the contender (called the Candidate).
All you have to do is look at both photos,
and then decide if the photo on the
right is better than the photo on the
left (in other words, does the photo
on the right “beat the current champ?”).
If it doesn't, then press the Right Arrow
key on your keyboard and the next
photo in your collection (the new con-
tender) appears on the right to challenge
the current champ on the left (as seen
here, where a new photo has appeared
on the right side).
