    No idea what you want

     

    Pictures is a folder on disk not an application so it can not open anything

     

    to open photos you either use the Photos application or to open in other applications use the media browser - although this is for iPhoto it mostly applies to Photos too - How to Access Files in iPhoto

     

    Or you select in Photos and export (file menu ==> export) to a desktop folder - again for iPhoto but mostly applicable to Photos - Exporting From iPhoto - and use from there
