Is it possible to hide photos from your library but have them visible in their own album??

I do a lot of animation with images that are slightly different the problem is they fill up my library so it becomes overwhelmed with say 300 of the same image. Then its difficult to find my snapshots or requires a lot of scrolling.


can I just hide photos from my library after putting them in their own album??

You can, but you have to use a smart album.


Select all the images. Give them all a keyword (Eg "animation001"). Then hide them.


Now create a new smart album (eg called "animation001, but it doesn't have to be the same as the keyword) with the condition:


keyword - is - animation001

photo - is - hidden


Make sure match is "all"
