The Apple Photos Book for Photographers (2nd Edition) from Rocky Nook helps you take advantage of all the sophisticated features of Apple's Photos for OS X app. The app was designed to help you organize, edit, and share your pictures and video, but the interface is not so straightforward. And with the launch of the latest Photos app, there's more to this app than meets the eye. For photographers who are more than just casual shooters, or those making the transition from Aperture, iPhoto, or simply the previous version of the Photos app, this easy-to-follow book shines light on the true sophistication of this app and the ecosystem it taps into.
