Adobe Lightroom CC (no longer Adobe Photoshop Lightroom) is available for download, and my favorite new features are tiny ones… but they bring the file organization workflow just a little closer to what we had in Aperture.

I wrote this ebook last year for the “5 Day Deal”, and am finally releasing it for sale separately. If you didn’t get it then, now’s the time!

If you end up with a temperamental Photos library, just like in iPhoto and Aperture, there’s a built-in repair routine.

If you’ve been playing with Photos for OS X, you may have discovered by now that when you delete a picture, Photos always prompts you to be sure you’re sure. Turns out there’s a very easy way around that dialog.

If you migrated from Aperture to Photos, you may have noticed that your 100 GB Aperture library appears to have duplicated into another 100 GB Photos library. Turns out, that’s not really true.

Faces is one of the features in Photos for OS X that is not available in Photos for iOS. However, it turns out that the data is all there… if you search for it.

Noiseless is the latest app from MacPhun, and it’s a doozie. It’s incredibly impressive how good the noise reduction is!

Intrigued by the new Photos app for OS X, and how it interacts with Photos on iOS? This basic training video will take you through everything there is to know about Photos from Apple.

PhotoApps.Expert finally has a new logo, and also its own Facebook page… check it out!

Obviously I’m a glutton for punishment, but I’m currently moving over 100,000 images to iCloud Photo Library. This will not be a one-part post.

With the iOS 8.3 update, you can now create folders for your Albums in Photos for iOS, but it’s easier to manage them in Photos for OS X.

Some advanced Aperture users have libraries north of 1TB in size, but iCloud storage plans only go up to 1TB. So what happens if you want to move more than that to the cloud? For now, you can’t. But read on to see how to handle this.

Photos is here, and it’s missing features we all want. What do YOU want to see in there? Let’s focus on everyman features, not pro features…

One of the great features in Aperture (but not iPhoto) was the ability to merge libraries. There isn’t a merge feature in Photos, but there is a workaround. This will be critical to know if you want to play with Photos today, then later combine this with your existing Aperture or iPhoto libraries.

I’ve completed the upgrade to OS X 10.10.3, and have launched Photos for the first time. Here’s a couple of quick notes.
