Our Daily App Giveaway – The Photographer’s Ephemeris – Professional Photographic iOS App
Welcome once again to our Daily App Giveaway section of theappwhisperer.com. We value our readers so much we want to share our love of apps with you. That’s why we have created this new section as each day we will be giving away free apps.
Today, we have The Photographer’s Ephemeris apps to giveaway, each currently worth $8.99. The Photographer’s Ephemeris (TPE) helps you plan your outdoor photography shoots, particularly landscape and urban scenes. It is a map-centric sun and moon calculator: see how the light will fall on the land, be it day or night, for any location on earth.
TPE’s map-based approach means you are not limited to a predefined list of locations, which often don’t include the places many photographers go. Instead, search for any place name on the planet or position the map pin exactly where you want it.
So, how you do get your hands on these codes? Well, it’s simple, all you have to do is Like us on Facebook. Then join our ever expanding Twitter followers and retweet this page – http://tryth.at/tc584
That’s it. Come on, show us some love…

the excellent companion for a 3G version iPad. however with a wifi only you can also do the trick when you’re outside and sharing internet with any device you have for this.
this app seems to give great info, you just have to know how to read it and get the best of it.
