For DAM I use ACDsee. Also it has dual editing modules. Develop simple adjustments akin to LR and Edit, layers etc like PS. ....

Me also - very quick to keyword and categorise photos and a very quick tool for doing a sort of 'curves' type tweak as well.

Also use Affinity, but as you say very slow to start up. I also use DXO from time to time for the RAW conversion. And alesser known one for versatile editing; Picture Window Pro

A nice it of sideways thinking; thanks for sharing. I also might have a closer look at this idea.

Thanks for the link - puts things back into some sort of perspective. However there are situations where it is useful to underexpose and be able to push exposure in PP; eg in order to gain a faster shutter speed in low light or with action in low light in order to capture a sharp image - not that I do a lot of that!

A great set Gary; thanks for sharing and hope the revisiting was therapeutic as well...
I really like all the tree ones

Thanks Gareth and John. I like the thoughts about the shapes .
It is amazing just watching the shapes morph from one to another
And thanks Razah

4 and 5 are my favourites but what the heck are they doing in 7?

I wonder that - they quite often make a sudden dive almost into the sea and then come back up again!

Thanks all for the comments; I am fortunate to be near to where this natural phenomenon happens!

Was treated to a spectacular display last night at sunset on Brighton seafront. I was about to give up waiting for the starlings to arrive, when they suddenly pitched up!

Enjoy - I certainly did, albeit video captures it better;
