Google Photos – how I use it
As promised, and apologies for the delay – Christmas and illness got in the way – here are some notes on how I’ve got Google Photos to work for me. It concentrates mainly on how I’ve configured Backup and sync to do what I want it to do. I think the editing of photos is relatively straightforward, as is creating albums and slideshows. I may get round to doing something on the latter, as I might with sending photos for printing – that’s quite a good topic. I’ve used Snapfish and Yophoto for printing photos and books, both of which I can recommend. I now use Blurb, but that’s because it works so well with Lightroom – it’s more expensive than the other two.
