Apple Releases New Photos Desktop Image Library and Editing Tool for OS X, Replacing iPhoto and Aperture

Apple has released the new Photos app (previously) to all Mac owners with OS X Yosemite. Previously only available to beta testers, the new app–which arrives with OS X 10.10.3–is intended to replace both iPhoto and Aperture, creating a single, clean cloud-based library for photos and videos across Macs, iOS devices, and iCloud. The app brings a number of photo-editing tools, filters, and even a wide offering of emojis.
