Now that I am viewing the contents of my new All Dogs collection I’ll cull out the non-dog photos by holding the CMD (PC: Ctrl) key and clicking the check mark on each unwanted photo.
Click the Copy button to complete the process. This will open a dialog where you can choose to add them to an existing album, or create a new one. With all the search results selected, I’ll make an album by clicking the Add To button at the top of the results. You’d think there would be an easier way to do this, so if you know one, let me know. Hold the Shift key, and click the check mark on the last photo in the results to select all in between. The fastest way I’ve found to make a collection from a search result is to click the check mark on the first photo in the results, then press the End key (this may involve the fn + right-arrow key, depending on your keyboard layout) to jump to the very bottom of the results. I’ll worry about the non-dog photos later. I do have a lot of dogs in my life, and while there were some non-dog photos in the results, I was amazed when it found some photos with just part of a dog’s head. I did a search on all photos using just the word “dogs” and out of 3677 total photos synced with Lr CC from Classic it returned 410 results. One of the ways I’ve been playing with it is to start by using the Adobe Sensei powered search function to find all photos of a certain subject, then make a collection out of the results, and then run the Best Photos algorithm on that collection. I suppose like other technology previews we may one day see a version of this appear in other parts of the Lightroom ecosystem, as we did with the new and improved Auto settings. I’ve been having fun playing with it, and I’m curious to hear what others may think. Once you’ve enabled the feature, click into one of your albums (same as synced collections from Classic), and you should see the Best Photos icon above the thumbnails. Once there, click on the Lr logo (upper-left), and choose Technology Preview from the drop-down menu. Have you checked out the Best Photos technology preview in Lightroom CC on the web? It was released back in October, but you’d only see it if you logged into with your Adobe ID and password (used for your CC subscription).
