Narrowing "The Selection"

After taking many photos I need to narrow them down to about 6 images. The best of the best. I will then photoshop them (improving them). Here is my selection...

The shapes in the pictures above express the image to a 3d look. Also the texture gives it a sense of a 3 dimensional image. To aid this look, the lines in the walls add to the picture.

These doors stand out comparing to ordinary doors as they have an incomplete feeling and they show warm colours. It is also a social comment upon how people live without repair.

On the pictures above here, they are all about perspective and to show how the person is looking at the image or how the lens was looking at the image. The angles on the left image show an image as if a person is hiding from revealing their sins in church. The mage on the right show an angle like someone looking up towards the spire.

These images are also all about perspective, for example the image on the left portrays the view of the graveyard and the sky, so it abides by the rule of thirds and the second image is showing old/ancient architecture by showing the worn away face modeled and placed above a church door.

These were my best images during this level 1 City & Guilds Photography Course. The way I picked these images is from a process of elimination. The first step of the process was to delete all the images with really/slightly bad quality. The second step was to check if the picture contains what i want and didn't for what I didn't want. Finally I eliminated the pictures that didn't have the lighting in the correct areas even though I could edit that later in photoshop.  But it would not be lit in the specific areas in focus that are the subjects of the photos. When these have been edited in Photoshop then they should look a lot better e.g. cropping, tilting, contrast, B & W and other editable features. All the information about how the pictures were taken are on previous posts.
