If consecutive images are the same scene, stack them together. First remove all the MAJOR losers, then drill it down. first give all the non-losers one star, then go through one star and tag better ones two stars, and so on. If Robert Frank can narrow 20000 negs down to 80+, it should be easy for anyone right ;-P (only kidding!)
