Afternoon all,
I'm after advice on hour to storage my images, maybe a specific piece of software (free always good) and advice on tagging etc for searching at a future date
I have a Mac and use Lightroom (the last downloadable version) for my editing.
I've got a lot of images now and on my Mac, at the mo, I use 'photos'. I have to add images to this by storing on my Mac and inserting into photos after i've first save the to a folder in Pictures.
I'm not a great techy but is there another program about that lets me save direct to that from editing in Lightroom, that I can also view the images from any folder in full screen without having to keep previewing singularly on the Mac. Ideally it would need to be transferable, so that I could save to a hard drive and view on other machines, but still use the labels?
On top of that, how, if at all, do you tag/label your images so you can find them at different times. At the mo, mine are just saved in folders with no tags but I think I should be tagging/labelling to keep organised.
Sorry for the very long and boring post and I hope it makes some sense to someone
