iLife photobook

We went to the german military cemetery on the 5th of june with my wife’s grandfather.
A 90 year old war veteran, still rock solid and going strong :D

It was a very impressive trip. There are 20.000 crosses on an 16ha field, covering 40.000 german corpses of the second world war.
It is the biggest german war cemetery not placed in Germany itself. 6221 crosses contain the name ‘Ein Deutscher Soldat’ which means the body could not be identified. Most victims fell during the ‘18daagse veldtocht’ (10 - 25 may 1940), 3 battles around Aken (sept till dec 1944), and the Ardennes Offensive (16 dec 1944 till 30 jan 1945). There are also 542 german victims of the first world war here.

We decided to create an iLife photobook of this visit, just as a surprise for ‘GrandPa’.
We created and ordered it the day itself, and today it arrived in perfect condition! It only took 3 work days to create the book, and the shipping took 5 work days. Talking about fast!

I’ve uploaded the images of the visit and the arrival of the book to my picasa pages, which you can view here

  1. Seems to be hidden on the Apple website (or I’m just lookin’ over the item .. ) but how to order/upload ?
    Happy with the print quality, book quality, etc ?
    Can you add a direct link to the iLife -website ? ;)

    Hmm, I’ll give it a try for upcoming birthday-presents :)

  2. Bart,

    Is it is in fact an option of the iLife (application) - iPhoto studio to create a photobook and order it online. The iLife application runs only on osx :D

    The quality of printing and the book itself is simply magnificent !
