So about a little over a week ago Apple released Aperture 3. Aperture is the main software that I use for managing and editing my photos. It has been a LONG time in coming and I am glad that it is finally out. One of the things I was looking forward too upon the release of Aperture 3 was the ability to save different variations or "looks" in what is called a preset. Its a simple but powerful feature that had been missing in the previous versions of Aperture. Since I received my copy of Aperture I have been working away at some fun presets that I am glad to say are here and available for anyone looking to download them. I have 2 different sets with example photos listed below.
FuFu Berry
Ok, these are just some fun and colorful presets. Really just wanted to play around and have some "vintagy" looking styles that I could experiment with. The naming means NOTHING. I always found that presets were just more fun when they had a wacky name.

Island Life
This is a set of 5 presets that are somewhat based around the time of the day and the intensity and color of the sun. I named this set "Island Life" because I used to live on an island.. Hatteras Island off the coast of North Carolina. I have fond childhood and teenage memories growing up on and around the beach and I tried to recreate that mood with these presets.
