After winning Apple’s prestigious iPad App of the Year award, the developers of Snapseed for iPad decided to port their powerful photo editing software to the Mac.

According to Nik Software, “Snapseed for Mac OS is the only photo app you’ll want to use every day! It makes any photograph extraordinary with a fun high-quality photo experience right on the desktop.”

For $19.99 (15.99 EUR), you can now download an app that lets you enhance and transform your imagery into true works of art without any advanced knowledge of image manipulation.

You can use it to adjust your photos with the Tune Image filter, which now features Auto Correct and Selective Adjust for precise editing, then add cool filters like Drama, Vintage, Grunge, and Tilt & Shift, and add Image Borders for the finish.

The software boasts Facebook, Twitter and Flickr integration, as well as YouTube ties, in case you want to make a nifty slide.

Some of the enhancements included in the new and improved Mac version of Snapseed are:

== Creative Enhancements ==
• Black & White - Get that classic Black and White look with this darkroom-inspired filter.
• Vintage Films - Make any photo look like a vintage color film photo from the 50’s, 60’s or 70’s.
• Drama - Add style with a custom effect specifically tailored to your photos.
• Grunge - Give your photos a totally unique, hip, and dingy look.
• Tilt & Shift - Create the classic compressed depth of field look of a miniature set or emulate the swings and tilts of a large format camera.
• Details - Enhance details with traditional sharpening or the unique Structure control found in the Nik Software professional products.
• Center Focus - Draw attention to the subject of your photo by blurring the surrounding background.
• Organic Frames - Add stylized borders to photos for the perfect finishing touch.


The app requires Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later and also works on OS X 10.7 Lion.
