[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1787156, member: 396914"] I'll go contrarian and suggest that if you are going to use the Canon software for import and editing that you NOT use Photos, just put the pictures in folders under your Documents folder, not on the desktop as Ian has told you. The Canon software and Photos do the same things--import and edit--but the one additional thing Photos does is storage and retrieval. Given you are comfortable with folders, just use that. Note, however, that Photos always keeps the original photo, even if you edit it, just in case you ever decide to undo the edits, or change your mind. I don't know if the Canon software does that. Of course, if you edit with the Canon and then import to Photos, then Photos sees the edited image as the "original." So pick one or the other and stick with it, don't mix them. Thats my $0.02 anyway. [/QUOTE]
