When you want to process a large number of photographs to be of a similar style, the batch process tool becomes very useful.
To batch process, you need to first create an action. This is like recording the actions you would like to carry out with your folder of photographs. I would like to see my group of photographs to be Black and White and with a higher contrast,
- First open up one of the photographs you would like to edit.

I have completed recording the process I would like my photographs to go through.
Before I move onto the next step, I make sure that all my photographs are in one folder. And always as a backup, keep a another folder of the original pictures!

After pressing okay, the computer will quickly start processing all your files. Opening each file, it will then go through each action that was recorded with each file. After a little patience, depending on how many photographs you have to process of how many actions you have recorded soon you will have a lovely set of edited photographs like below.
