Preview, And other Photo Editing Prog's ?

[Robert4]

Hello,

Have never done any kind of photo editing before, but have a photo
I would like to play with, and probably lighten up a bit.

Thought I could do it in Preview, but just can't see any way of doing it.
Also, can't seem to bring up any editing menus in it.

Is preview what I want to use ?
*If so, how do I use the basics of, please ?

Or, is there a "better" one to learn, but also very basic and simple ?
(already pre-installed on Mac, or link to ?)

Thanks, and Happy Holidays,
Bob

Preview is basic, and can perform very basic tasks.

Photos (which is included on every Mac) is better.
Gives you more control over more things, and isn't difficult to use.
Have you tried it?

Hi,

"Photos" looks terrific.
Thanks for suggestion.

Embarrassed that I didn't know about it.

Regards,
Bob
