New App Helps Photographers at National Park

Press release
iFotoGuide has released the first and only iPhone app/digital guide to on-location nature photography. It is available through the Apple App Store.
iFotoGuide: Arches is the first in a series of digital guides for the iPhone providing nature photographers with a comprehensive resource for planning every aspect of a photography trip. Use iFotoguide: Arches to locate the nearest airport, find lodging and a rental car, and determine what weather to expect during your visit. Users of iFotoGuide: Arches can learn about park entrance fees, permits, flora and fauna, safety considerations and best times to visit for fall colors or wildflower blooms.
iFotoGuide: Arches goes beyond the ordinary photo guidebook by providing three innovative ways for iPhone users to find a dynamic location for photography. An interactive park map allows users to zoom, pan and select photography locations by name. Images in the photo gallery serve to inspire and are also interactive – one touch provides detailed instructions for getting to and photographing each location. iFotoGuide: Arches even allows users to search for locations to photograph at sunrise, sunset or in mid-day light.
Unlike guidebooks and newsletters, which may be several years out of date, iFotoGuide: Arches is easily updated to ensure accurate and fresh content. iFotoGuide: Arches sells for $4.99 in the Apple App Store. Updates will include additional locations within Arches NP and will be available at no cost to iFotoGuide: Arches users.
Created by photographers for photographers, iFotoGuide: Arches is designed to provide users with all the tools necessary for a successful and productive photo trip. The developers of iFotoGuide: Arches are expanding park coverage, with Canyonlands NP and Yosemite NP hitting the Apple App Store in the first quarter of 2010.
iFotoGuide was founded in 2009 by photographers Dan Baumbach and Bret Edge to provide the only digital photo guides available in the Apple App Store.
