Hi Jonathan, Further to Sam’s reply I would suggest you have a look at Affinity Photo for editing your photos as an alternative to Aperture, it does not manage a library of photos but is an excellent full featured photo editor. It’s made by a UK company, based in Nottingham, and it only costs £23.99 and has a free trial. They also sell a nice hardback manual for the program. Considerably cheaper than an Adobe software annual license.
