I am not an apple customer really, so I’m really not sure what to do. My mother died 4 years ago and she had her laptop and MacBook and iPhone all synced to the cloud, we think. My father was able to look at photos across all devices.

He recently got a warning that he’s been ignoring for about a month. I can’t post photos but it essentially says “some of your files will be deleted in 27 days. Using 36gb of 5gb limit. We will need to delete files to bring account under limit. Free up storage or upgrade your plan.”

Now, he’s not interested in using the cloud himself. He has memory devices he could use instead. But this is a lifetime of his late wife’s family photos and photos of her that we’d be destroyed to lose. I’m not familiar with where all these photos are, I don’t even know if he can log into the cloud without her password, but what are the next steps to deal with this?

He says that the photos are saved onto the computer itself but I need to be 100% sure

Edit: thanks everyone. I typed up this question in a bit of a panic on my phone when I went to visit yesterday. Turns out it was dropbox, not icloud, and we were able to gain access with a password and download everything. Thank you all for your feedback

Ive been obsessed with this style since I was a kid, but I absolutely cannot nail it down in a word or phrase. It's something so specific in my mind and I've seen it often in paintings and landscaping but never with a specific description or singular word. I imagine a single word probably doesnt exist for it but here's hoping lol..

I can kind of sum it up with a few features. First of all, it kind of has a low-poly "PS1 graphics" quality to it. SUPER minimal shapes and design. I always think of the first Spyro game as my introduction to it.

The italian landscape aspect is the next feature. Poplar trees, groomed topiary, rolling manicured hills, symmetry and minimalist shapes.

Next is the abstract and "unnatural" element. Spirals, unnatural scale of certain shapes and objects, unnatural repetition of certain features, un-organic minimalism. Harsh contrast between darks and lights, deep shadows, immaculate textures. The "liminal space" is a major aspect of this style.

Artist-wise I can only think of Eyvind Earle, Grant Wood, Charles Jencks...

Here's a few images I could find that are similar. Sorry for the AI, unfortunately AI is REALLY good at capturing the exact look I'm trying to name. The bottom image of the white figure in the dark hedges encapsulates it really well. I'll try and find some real-life examples too.

"Minimalist" is too obvious, as would be "flat shaded", but I can't think of anything else..
