Click the theme you want and then click Play Slideshow. When you do, Photos automatically selects all the thumbnails in that moment or collection and opens the Themes panel shown here. In Photos view, point your cursor at a moment or collection, and then click the play button that appears above the thumbnails on the right. You can start an instant slideshow in Photos on your Mac in a variety of ways, depending on what button is active at the top of the Photos window and what you’re viewing. In this column, you’ll learn how to make instant slideshows, where all you have to do is pick the images you want to include and then click a couple of buttons. We’re not talking slideshow projects, wherein you spend hours crafting every single slide, oh heck no. Happily, the Photos application makes creating slideshows a snap both on your Mac and on your iOS devices. Seeing your digital memories overtake your entire screen, set in motion through smooth animations and transitions, complete with background music, is a uniquely personal cinematic experience.
When it comes to showing off your pictures and videos, nothing beats a great slideshow.
