I am not a regular on this forum. I would have searched this topic before posting but am unable to see a search function within the site, so here goes. I am seeking a recommendation for how to most effectively share photos from my wife's iPad 2 with other people.
I run OSX El Capitan version 10.11.1 on my desktop PC. I download photos to it from my camera, including photos taken by my wife. She uses an iPad 2 running up to date software. I am aware that I can sync the iPad using iTunes but that means a very large number of photos which would quickly overwhelm her 16GB capacity. Ideally I want her to be able to view a fair number of photos, then email just a few of them as desired. Here is what I am doing to achieve that currently.
I store photos in a designated folder within my PC. Those that I want to share with my wife I post to my Google Drive which she can access using her iPad. In theory she can then email selected pictures from Google Drive, but in practice it becomes a lengthy, laborious process for her when there is more than one simple picture to be emailed. She is not very tech savvy and gets lost if any process becomes too complicated. (I am aware there are other ways to share from Google Drive, links, etc., but want to do so by sending pictures within emails, a process she is comfortable with.)
Suffice to say the current Google Drive method is not fitting our needs. Can someone suggest a better way, please?
