Morning
You could star the selected images (if they're in the same collection) ,
then in lighttable mode set to filemanager, with the number of images
viewed set to 2 you are sorted :).
If they're not in the same collection create a collection by using a unique
tag and adding images as required.
Cheers
Dave
