how do I attach a 12mb raw image picture file to email

I'm trying to attach a picture raw image file to an email. The file is 12.5mb, so within the limit t send an email. Everytime I attach it to an email it compresses it to 515kb, even though I have actual size selected. How do I overcome this?

MacBook Pro 13″, OS X 10.11

Size, in Mail and indeed everywhere, refers to the dimensions of the photograph - that it, length by breadth measured in pixels.


What you need to do is select the Raw in Photos and go


File -> Export -> Export Unmodified Original


Save that and attach it to the email.
