Step 3: Appraise photos in each folder, disposing based on personal selection criteria

Step 5: Batch rename all remaining photos in folder: CreationDate_TEXT_001
Step 6: process all files in TIFF (with LZW compression).
Step 7: Assess a selection of files to ensure normalisation has occurred correctly.
