Aperture 3:Travel Photography...Tip for Places, use your iPhone or your Digital Camera with a GPS
Recent
visited places from Mindoro Isl., Puerto Galera, City
of Batangas, Makati and Manila shown as Satellite Map
If
you're not using a Digital Camera with a GPS function
that is Ok. just use your iPhone and whenever you
stop or from the Car window take a quick shot. Later
import the photos from your iPhone into Aperture 3
activate Places and the rest is easy. I be writing a
lot more about this cool addition from the road.
Click on the
Places icon at
the upper right hand side at the toolbar to get you
started.

visited places in Makati and Manila shown as Road Map
10
days ago I went to the Island of Mindoro/Puerto
Galera and I took some happy snaps with the iPhone,
then on the way back I also stopped in Batangas and
then back to Manila. Of course there have been some
gaps where I didn't stop to get some images but all
the rest had been recorded, very accurate I might
add, see the attached screenshots. Map options
are
Satellite - Road or Terrain.
Ok the only "drawback" is that my wife from now on
always knows where I am or I have been, ha, ha. but
that is fine with me too, nothing to hide.

To
activate your Places before they work you have to go
first to the Aperture 3 Preferences settings and
activate it, then click on the Advanced setting a
small drop down menu appears and you see Look up
Places, the default setting is on Never just click on
the Automatically and you're done.
Again an excellent new addition to Aperture 3 and as
you can see I am getting fine tuned for my big trip
starting next week.

HANOI VIETNAM... View from the Car Window… a nice example of Vietnamese daily life…a reader contribution. A cool shot, edited in Aperture 2.1.1 interesting TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHY and the shooting from the car window continuous…
Thank you Massimo for letting me use your image on my blog, a nice one to share with all our other readers.
See below email from Massimo:
Hello Gunther!
I always very interested to follow your blogs updates.
Just my 1 cent:
- Regarding the way to protect your pictures on the web I agree that flash make it more difficult. Anyway as you know very well it is very easy to copy a pictures using tools like "Grab" for the Mac, even if still in low resolution.
- I do really like your latest gallery "The View from my Car Window". Street photography (with or without car!) is what I really like and do a lot here in Vietnam. I would like to share the following picture that I got from the car last weekend.

Casal - Ha Tay province just ouside
Hanoi,Vietnam
you might also noticed that I have added a Copyright
watermark
on Massimo’s image hence my other blog
“How to protect my images on the
web”.
The picture is taken in Ha Tay
province (just outside Hanoi city) from the car
window.
I used a Canon 1DMarkIII camera + 28-300L lens. RAW
file processed with Aperture 2.1.1, using also the
Dodge and Burn plug-in to lighten and sharpen the
bride face.
Thank you very much and Best Regards!!
