Q Sliding away
The Windows Photos program has a good option for amateur photographers. I can make a ‘video’ of my photos. The photos can move in a good number of ways and I can add background music that adapts automatically to the length of the video. How do I do the same thing in a Linux program? I am afraid you may answer that it is possible, but not nearly as easily.

A What you are looking for is a way to create a slideshow from your photos. There are a few options available to you. They do not have the exact same feature set of Microsoft Photos, but they make up for what they miss out on in other areas. The first is DigiKam, the photo manager for KDE. Although it is a KDE program, it can be used with any desktop environment and should be in your distro’s package repositories. Among its wealth of features is the ability to create a slideshow from an album or selected photos. A range of transitions are available and other factors such as timing and final resolution can all be set. The main omission from your feature list is the ability to add a soundtrack, but that can be done afterwards by loading the video into a video editor, such as OpenShot.
Another option is (https:// ), a program designed to create slideshows from photos. The program is quite old, although there does seem to be some development
