3 GREAT PHOTOS EXTENSIONS

As a digital darkroom, Apple’s Photos app does a great job of fixing common problems with colour, tone and composition. However, you can expand its functionality by adding third-party extensions that can be accessed from within Photos.

Luminar Neo

£59

FROM skylum.com

Speed up your processing by harnessing Luminar Neo’s Machine Learning (ML) tools to improve composition more quickly. Remove unwanted objects more effectively than you can using Photos’ Retouch tool.

Pixelmator Pro

£34.99

FROM pixelmator.com

Pixelmator Pro provides layers, so you can composite multiple images together in more creative ways than you can using the Photos app’s photo-fixing tools. It also has a handy Quick Selection tool.

Picktorial

£8.99 per month

FROM picktorial.com

This app provides advanced tools that Lightroom Classic users have enjoyed for years, such as the ability to clone in Raw files and make graduated adjustments to selectively reveal missing sky detail.
