This series attempts to emulate the process that an art director goes through when choosing an image for a client. The client may have very specific requirements or may need an image that conveys an emotion or evokes a feeling. Art directors are notoriously ruthless when it comes to choosing the best images to present to a client, but I'll not attempt to emulate THAT.
