Lightroom?
I know a few on here use GIMP but I'm not keen on it personally.

You can get Adobe CC for a monthly fee now too, unless you know anyone with a free copy.

Not sure what else there is, especially for Apple products.

Well the two worth looking at are Apple’s Aperture, and Adobe’s Lightroom. I have the latter and it’s fantastic. Buy cheap, buy twice as they say, so go the extra and get Lightroom in my opinion.

Lightroom doesn't call back to check codes unlike every other Adobe programme, so if you know someone with a spare copy, you should be OK...

I used to own an 'ahem' copy of lightroom on my PC but since moving to Mac I didn't have that option and now pay the adobe cc for Photoshop and lightroom £8.90 a month.

Lightroom for me.

looks like lightroom is the way to go

Definitely Lightroom, I messed around with Pixelmator and a bunch of others for a while, but in hindsight I should have just paid up for Lightroom straight away.

Snapseed is very good for quick processing, unfortunately it's no longer available as an App.

I guess it depends what you want. I've used Lightroom on PC but purchased Aperture with my MBP and I prefer that... Each to their own though.

I used to use GIMP but moved over to PS CS5 and Lightroom the other day.

If you learn the basics in GIMP (free), it structures your learning and understanding in something like Photoshop.

I have elements 11 which I'll be putting next week, just wanted something else
