I have been a Mac guy for quite awhile now. Up until just a few days ago, I used Photos, and its predecessors iPhoto and Aperture to keep track of my photos. I have used a wide variety of editors to do this, that and the other things to my photos. I really enjoy composites and their relatives like digital scrapbooking. All you good folks who inhabit this board have helped me many times in many ways for which I do give you my sincere thanks.
But, in the Mac world, if you want to do things that cannot be done by the built-in Apple apps, you may find yourself in problems. And I have to say that I have run into problems getting any photo editing app to play nicely with Photos. There are two systems that one can use. There are extensions and there is "Edit With". And sooner or later, you are going to find some kind of issue or process or detail that just will not work. I have run out of patience with this. At five days away from birthday #86, I don't feel inclined to set about attempting to solve such issues.
So, I am now giving the Adobe photo ecosystem a shot at making life easier or at least more compatible. Going with one of their plans, using Lightroom (cloud version), Photoshop, Photoshop for iPad and Lightroom on my iPhone 14 Pro. I have put in a couple of years photos and am in the process of seeing how well this will all work.
Wish me luck,
and anyone doing something similar is welcome to comment on their experience.
