Long time since my last post

It has been a long time since my last blog post. Reason is that I've been using my iPad most of the time. Writing a blog from an iPad isn't easy.  As far as I know there aren't any blogspot apps. Sure I could use the web interface but that doesn't work well. As good as the iPad is, it isn't working well for creating content.  But what the iPad does have are some great photography apps


Fotopedia National Parks
This app shows photos from the 58 national parks of the USA taken by Quang-Tuan Luon. He was the first person to take photos of all 58 parks with a large format camera. The images are  amazing. It is a paid app but well worth the price!

Peter Lik Opus HD

The app contains the full contents of Peter Lik's 25 Year Anniversary Book, text with every photo, and 33 videos that feature Peter talking about a selection of the photographs. At $8.99 this isn't a cheap app but compared to the $2000,-  paper version it is a steal. By the way if you still want the paper version be sure you can handle the 40lbs is weighs!

Exploring my iPad

It has been a while since my last post. I have been busy with my new iPad. Bought the 32Gb 3g version (only using WiFi at he moment). I think it's great. But what makes it a beautiful device to use? It's not because it's made Steve Jobs. I think it's the size. It just the right size for couch surfing.  I guess size does matter.

One of my favorite apps on the iPad is Fotopedia Heritage. This app is like a coffee table book of Unesco World Heritage sites. You navigate through 20.000 pictures and when you want you can get more information or map of the location. Best of all it's free! Give it a try.
