How to find just deleted files in Time Machine? I am going through many old photographs on my Mac, deleting duplicates that have occurred for one reason or another.  However, I realise that I may have deleted the wrong duplicate in some cases.  I have deleted several hundred duplicate photos, across multiple folders.

I have my whole hard drive backed up in Time Machine.  However I don't want to simply restore all the files in Time Machine for my photos folder since I have made some changes since doing the deletion that I want to keep.  There are too many files involved to hunt for them in Time Machine individually.

Is there a way I can identify the files in a folder in Time Machine that do not exist in the current filesystem?  And then a way to restore them.

I think the command line tool tmutil may be helpful but I am not experienced with this.
Assuming you deleted the pictures directly in Finder


open (in Finder) the folder which used to contain the pictures
access Time Machine via the menulet
TM will open, showing the different time slices of your folde
Go back in time until before the deletion
Right-click on file(s) in question to restore them
