But something in my mind (the part still working at almost 70) keeps saying "But you are missing so much by not moving back to Lightroom and Photoshop!". I also am trying out RAW Power again - an extension for Photos that was developed by people who originally worked on Aperture - to work more with my RAW files. And my wife loves the way I can pretty easily share parts of my photo library with her and her iPhone/iPad - so I would not want to give all that up.īut am I missing a lot of capabilities using Apple Photos and Pixelmator Pro as an additional editor through Extensions in Photos. Unfortunately Apple stopped supporting it and moved lots of people to Photos (which I happen to love and it has gotten much better at post processing over the years - especially with additional programs working as extensions) because of it's integration with all the Apple products. When I moved from Windows/Lightroom to a Mac I loved Aperture. (Whew - thanks for reading a little of my background.) One also takes part in statewide (NJ Federation of Camera Clubs) and national (Photographic Society of America) competitions. All these clubs have meetings where photos are submitted and a local photographer is brought in as a judge. (And yes I do remember film - mind not that far gone yet.) I recently retired and we moved to a community that has a photography club and there are several others nearby that I wish to get active in. I am not a professional photographer but enjoying photography very enthusiastically for over 50 years now.
