After a year and a half of having my sister’s MacBook in a drawer I finally called Apple and got it working (the password she gave me hadn’t worked). Working in conjunction with photoshop it worked great to edit this photo!
I used the Apple Mac to remove a chair and the adobe to add in the snowflakes.
The more I edit the easier it gets… at least now I can find where it saves them to😆.
This was saved as a video but it’s an amazing screen saver!

That's great! I really need to learn to use some of those editing programs, and how to put a watermark on my photos. Your pic is gorgeous!

The one thing I’m learning Ann is that these editing programs take up a LOT of room! My HP all in one is old and while I haven’t used it for much it’s bogged down. The Adobe photoshop wasn’t working properly because there wasn’t enough space. Even the MacBook doesn’t have quite enough space but it’s still working 95% better. My advice if you want to use these programs check the requirements before you buy them…the free ones are just not good enough. And when your using something that’s free you are the product!

So with the MacBook get a USBC/Thunderbolt case for an NVMe drive. 2TB no power supply. That is what I use on the telescopes to transfer stuff. I also prefer Affinity Photo, no subscription and more than I need (of course for the telescope I start in Pixinsight but that is astronomy specific and VERY complex). I also got a 4 card raid NVMe case from macsales..... yes I have an absurd amount of storage for pictures and telescopes captures and movies......

I have a couple of external hard drives (both were my sister’s) one of which I’m importing to my computer then I can start clean. I believe I have another external hard drive as well but I’m not sure yet if I’ve hooked it up properly or not.
I’ll definitely try Affinity photo…especially if it’s not such a pig about space!

Most space is going to be the actual photos. A 20 megapixel picture adds up quick when you take a 100. Video is a bigger pig. Most drives on computers are undersized IMO but then among others I have a 48GB raid so you can see sheep standard is far from standard :ROFLMAO:
