Hello, my name is Steve, and I'm an amateur photographer (and have been since I bought my first 35mm camera way back in the 1970s.) Currently I use Aperture for managing my photo collection and with Apple no longer supporting it I've been looking for alternatives. I don't really want to migrate to Adobe products. I've downloaded the beta of Affinity Photo and am just beginning to figure out how to use it. I was able to access my Aperture library and can see all the photos within, but I've got quite a bit to learn here, I think.
My photography is a combination of film and digital, so new and old (sometimes very old) cameras and lenses.
Nice to be a member of the forum, and I hope to learn quite a bit about how to use Affinity Photo.
I live in the Twin Cities in Minnesota and work in IT (close to retirement! Yay!) managing a team of developers (started as a developer myself, but it's been many years since I did any programming.)
So I'm a nerd that loves photography.
Steve
