When you take the screenshot, you’ll see a small thumbnail preview in the bottom-Right corner which you can click to edit the picture. The screenshot will be saved to your desktop and from there you can edit the picture, send it or just save it where it is.
How to screenshot a specific part of the screen:
Press the keys Shift+Command+4 and a symbol will appear.

The mouse will turn into a camera and you hover cover the window you want to screenshot and click on it to take a screenshot on that window.
Use the Screenshot menu: For the newer versions of MacOS:
Press the keys Shift+Command+5 and a small panel menu will appear on your lower screen.
The icons to the left allows you to take a screenshot of the whole screen, a window or highlighted section and to the right will let you record the whole screen or a highlighted section.
There’s also a label called options where you can choose where you want your screenshots to be saved and other choices.
