Helicon Photo Safe

Helicon Photo Safe is a professional software application that helps you view, organize, and edit your photos in a clean and intuitive working environment.

The program offers quick access to the files and folders stored on your computer, so you can easily select the ones to be processed.

What’s more, you are allowed to zoom in or out and sort images by name, date, rating, size, format, title, author, exposure time, or other criteria.

The utility lets you organize your photos in different categories, which can be burned on CD or DVD, pick an icon for each category, as well as view file information (e.g. name, path, size, resolution, EXIF and IPTC data).

One of the top features bundled into this tool enables you to perform geotagging operations by simply dragging and dropping the selected photo on the desired Google Maps location.

Other notable characteristics worth mentioning allow you to protect your images from unauthorized viewing by setting up passwords, perform search and basic editing operations (rename, copy, paste, delete), view the photos filtered by year and month, as well as check the “Event log” section for details about the edited, geotagged, copied, moved, renamed, or a user-defined event.

When it comes to configuring the editing parameters, you can rotate the photos to different angles, crop them, adjust the levels of brightness, while balance, saturation, and sharpening, use a histogram, and export the edited pictures to BMP, JPG, PSD, PNG, or TIFF file format.

Last but not least, you can switch to a full screen mode for a better focus on your work, print the images, edit IPTC information in terms of title, caption, creator, copyright, keyword, and location, and compare photos by viewing them side by side.

Helicon Photo Safe proves to be a reliable application that offers a decent pack of features for helping you manage your photos.
