    I was wondering if anyone of you can help me with what software i should get for editing my photos.
    I don't think i'm gonna go really mad with editing but for general and creative stuff like fixing exposures, colors, giving the photographs a certain atmosphere. And also maybe work with some HDR stuff.

    I've got a mac and right now i don't really wanna spend more than €200 on it. I was looking at Adobe Photoshop Elements or Apple Aperture and wasn't quite sure which one to go one...
    Anyone wanna help??...:)

    You could always try some free software and see how you get on. GIMP is a great one and totally free.

    think the website is gimp.org worth a shot and save €200 :)

    Picassa is a another good free one to try out. Lightroom 2 is the way to go though IMO. I use Lightroom and GIMP myself.

    There's been some problem with installing GIMP on my mac lately. Its asking for something which my mac doesn't have so i need to fix that before working GIMP on it.
    I'll check out picassa and Lighroom looks a little on the expensive side but i'll give that a shot too if its worth it...
