What I tend to do is use the star rating in LR. I go through and give the better ones 3 stars. That cuts them down, and you can then just view the 3 star ones by using ?attribute? in the Library panel. I then go through that batch and either uprate them to 4 star or downrate then to 2 star. I then just view the four star and do the up or down grade cull over again so I end up with just the 5 stars. I don?t envy you, I think editing is te most time consuming and boring job in photography.
