Where are my photos stored on my Mac's hard drive?
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
Unless you've changed iPhoto's configuration, they're in the iPhoto library, which is in the Pictures folder of your account's home folder. The library isn't meant to be manually modified; if you want to do something with a specific photo beyond what iPhoto itself offers, drag it to the desktop or use an iPhoto plugin.

As Neil says the photos re stored in the iPhoto Library.

Oh great, someone who doesn't understand what iPhoto is or how to use it giving useless advice in thread after thread where the correct information is already given.

Note to users
Seriously it is ridiculous to use improper and unsupported ways to access your files - iPhoto is a SQLite database and direct access to the database contents is not supported - you should use the proper tools as described above - doing otherwise does not work well and endangers your photos as small errors on a user's part can damage the database and corrupt it causing dataloss
What you need a forum for it to explain to you haw to use the program since you do not bother to read the help information or take the tutorials

PS also note that posting erronous suggestions on two year old threads is not really a smart idea either
