   And now, in the Macbook Air, it will automatically bring up iPhoto okay

   ?

   It will now automatically open so you can then instantly start importing your photos. So this is the first option you can do. So we have 7 photos here of a street scene. Very nice blue car - badly parked unsurprisingly.

   We can import directly from iPhoto or the other option is as you can see on the right of the screen, the folder has appeared

   .

   We can go directly to the file itself so if we do not want to use iPhoto and we want to use the actual file itself, we can begin working on that

   .

   Importing it or using it as we need okay? And you can see the photos we have taken today with the GoPro Hero 3 Black edition.
