Why aren't pictures showing up in my "Photos" folder?

While some of the photos I have imported show up in "Photos" and my "Import" folder, others ONLY show up in my "Import" folder and not in my "Photos" folder. Am I doing something wrong?


Thanks.

Import isn't a place, it's a list - of the most recent batches of imports. If a photo is in imports then it's in your Library... somewhere. If you right-click on an image in Imports there is and option to bring you to the image in the Photos section.
