male silverback mountain gorilla, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest Park, Uganda. I was at most 10 feet from this one, a bit nerve wracking

Another photo of the sword billed hummingbird in response to Mary Doo's comment about the "sword" from my January 1 post. It is amazing to see it fly with such a long bill

You are right about the ID. I have seen peregrine's before in that area and just assumed it was that. I would go with Cooper's hawk as its shins were pretty covered.

Not a good shot of an Andean condor in the Andes of Ecuador. It was the best I could do. I was at 12,000 feet looking down into the valley in the pouring rain and took this with my Nikon D500 and 200-400 Nikon f4 zoom at 400mm at maximum distance.

When I am travelling and taking photos I upload them (raw files) each day them from my Nikon camera to my laptop , quickly go through them to eliminate the duds, and then save them on my laptop and a portable hard drive. I have an old Version of On One on my laptop but the last time I did this I had to have an internet connection to use it. I am going to remote areas in Ecuador where i won't have good internet. So I would like a simple program that I can put on my laptop to use to just review the photos, delate the bad ones and save the good ones. The editing will take place when I return home and put them all on my desktop. I downloaded darktable but I couldn't figure out how to put multiple photos into it and then look at them one by one and delete them as needed. I gave up and uninstalled it. I then downloaded GIMP. When I tried to put in my RAW files it said I needed a Raw driver from darktable. The darktable website only seems to have the full program, not a specific driver that you can download. Can Photoshop Elements handle Raw files? If it can I think the best thing to do is to download a free trial version just before I leave on my 2 week trip . Any suggestions? comments?
