Photography Project: Curation, Quality Control & Finalising Images

 I curated the images and chose ten of them that are consistent for my project - Depth in Darkness: Modern Chiaroscuro.

From about 600 photos, I selected 20 of them and then I chose 10 that suited my project goals.

I was thinking about editing my photos in Photoshop or Lightroom, but I achieved my vision and like them as they are. 

Light is good, drama is preserved. Shadows are distinct, deep, and build atmosphere. Background black/dark, no distracting details. Framing is correct and well composed, the silhouette dominates the frame. Contrast is strong, stylish, typical for chiaroscuro.
