Thank you Paul 😊 I used to have Aperture but let that go many years back. Thanks to your tip below I had a look at Infinity Photo and given that the iPad version is functionally equivalent to the desktop version and is half price I thought I’d be a numpty not to buy it. 👍
So, sharing the love with two image based bits of fun for those with iPads, here are two playful and joyful apps I’d really recommend- Frax and Uzu. Both are fantastically colourful, make great use of multitouch and can produce some remarkable results. Frax is very processor intensive so definitely best enjoyed on the latest iPad Air or an iPad Pro. I look forward to the 1.3Gb download completing! 😆 Stephen You meet your destiny on the road you take to avoid it. ~ Carl Jung > On 9 Feb 2021, at 16:33, 'Paul R Owen' via Sussex Mac User Group > <[email protected]> wrote: > > 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.
