How can I display two albums or folders at one time? I often create sets of photos on a theme and need to pick the images I want from another folder or even from the Photos library itself. Now, I am constantly flipping between the two, and it is very tedious.
iMac 27″, macOS 10.15
I am launching the app PowerPhotos (https://www.fatcatsoftware.com/powerphotos/), when I need to compare photos from two two different albums. or even photo libraries PowerPhotos can be used as a second browser for Photos. Even the free trial version can show you your Photos Library in a second window. With the full version we can manage the libraries, search for duplicates, move albums between libraries, and more.
To build on Matti's advice to create a third album, try smart albums to compare two albums, if you what to compare albums and not the individual photos.
For example, let's assume, you have two albums "AlbumTheme1" and "AlbumTheme2".
To find all photos from AlbumTheme1, that are not in AlbumTheme2, use the smart album "File > New Smart Album"

Hi perijettristan,
Apple Support Communities welcomes you!
This concern appears to be related to the functionally or workflow you'd prefer to get things done. This is totally understandable. While this is not currently an option, you'd want to leave Product Feedback.
Stay awesome!
Can you create a 3rd album that contains the desired images from the other albums and compare the images there?
