John, Is it possible to turn off Faces (or what ever new new Photo calls it).
I take very few photos of people and yet iPhoto (which I’m still using since the first Photo required more steps in my opinion) and I get tired of seeing various rock formations, flowers, etc. unnamed. I can and do turn off Places. However the version of iPhoto and Photo I have do not allow one to turn off Faces.
