Photographs can commemorate, inspire,
amuse, persuade, and entertain. They’re
time machines that recall people and
places. They’re vehicles that carry messages
into the future. They’re ingrained in
infancy and become intensely personal
parts of our lives.
And now that photos have gone digital,
they’re everywhere. Between the cameras in
our phones and the larger cameras that we
tether to our wrists or wear around our
necks, we have more ways to record slices
of life than ever before. The phone in my
pocket contains more photos than my dad
shot in his lifetime.
How do we deal with this deluge of
images? How do we keep track of them so
we can find them years from now? How
can we make them look better? How do we
share them so that others can enjoy them?
iPhoto has answers—good answers—
to each of these questions. iPhoto handles
what I call the “tripod of digital imaging”:
organizing, enhancing, and sharing. This
book explores each of these three legs in
detail. Here’s an overview of what we’ll
explore together.
