Once downloaded, my happy time begins with Shotwell.
This lets me get right back to work after a dive, with my photos ready for viewing and editing when I next take a break. It uses a notification to my window manager ( i3) when the download is complete. On OpenBSD, I have a hotplugd(8) script download images when I plug in my camera. I use the USB interface to my Nikon and download photos with gphoto, but most operating systems (or if not, then photo management tools) have facilities for doing this themselves. This part depends upon the camera-whether with an SD card reader, Wifi, and so on-and your system. Let's start with getting photos from your camera. There are plenty of other tools-these are just those that I've used! In this post I'll talk about UFraw (specifically, nufraw), GIMP, and Shotwell. darktable, digiKam, and Shotwell have powerful photo management facilities while GIMP, RawTherapee, and UFRaw are primarily editors. For JPGs, there's GIMP, digiKam, and Shotwell. Popular tools for RAW open source editing tools these days are RawTherapee, darktable, and (far less popular) UFRaw.
This isn't a post to discuss why to use open source, but instead what kind of tools are available. The tools I mention should work on most any operating system, closed or open (I use OpenBSD). It may not be as pretty, it may not be as polished, but it works for me. I thought I'd speak a bit about a purely open source workflow. Most folks here use Photoshop, Lightroom, and other commercial systems for their photo editing workflow.
