I am looking for some photo editing software. Free if possible.
I am doing some bracketing for my Airbnb property. So want it to be able to stack photos.
 
Affinity by Canva AFAIK will do such stacking

I would seriously look at Affinity Studio, great raw developer and photoshop level imaging, shortcuts take some getting used to but it’s free and has a pro feel
 
I use Nikons NX Studio.
Works for me, but I am still not convinced 100% with it, now I read Afinity is free I will have to investigate that.
 
I bought affinity during covid when they were doing a special deal. Tried it once, closed the application and never touched it since - not what I'd call intuitive.

Do you want it for work on a phone or tablet - if so android or ios - or on desktop - if so mac or windows? For example, Open Camera for android and Flattr for ios are both free and worth looking at. Similarly, Fotor HDR works directly in your web browser and Luminance HDR is open source so works in os windows and linux.
If you don't mind spending some money, Affinity Photo is great! Unfortunately you now have to buy the whole suite if you work on a desktop, but you can still buy Affinity Photo 2 as a standalone for iPad and the App Store.

Affinity (Canva) suite is now free for personal use, unless you wish to pay for AI.

For the desktop, Canva Affinity (which includes the entire Serif Affinity suite of graphics programs) is now free, as long as you sign up for a free Canva account.

The free version includes additional features added by Canva, and includes all the AI features that existed when it was owned by Serif.

However, Canva has added additional generative AI features, which you can only access if you sign up for a paid Canva account.

This also then gives you access to the full range of paid-for graphics tools Canva provides.
