How to find Photos' image files in the Finder

<article>
   <section class="page">
<p>
Peter Philpott wonders how to access his media files in Photos for OS X: “In iPhoto, I could right-click on a photo and get it to reveal the original in the Finder.” Photos has an option when you right-click media, as well as in the File menu, labeled Show Referenced File in Finder—but it’s grayed out for him on the images with which he attempts this.</p><p>
While Photos stores original images just as iPhoto did, as well as modified versions and thumbnails, it’s more cautious about letting you get to them. If you import images into Photos (Preferences &gt; General, and Copy Items to the Photos Library is checked next to the Importing label), then you can’t easily get to the original file in the Finder.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2974149/software-photography/how-to-find-photos-image-files-in-the-finder.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
