16 Chapter 1 An Overview of Aperture
You can also create albums within projects to help you organize your images into
relevant groups. For example, images in your Antarctica project can be divided into
three albums: Antarctica Selects, On Land, and Underwater.
Note: You can also place versions from other projects in an album that resides within
a project.
There are two main types of albums, each suited to a particular function:
 Album: A type of folder containing image versions. You can view only the versions
that you’ve placed in the album.
 Smart Albums: This type of album contains image versions as well, but the contents
are controlled by search criteria that you specify. When you change the criteria
associated with a particular Smart Album, the contents of the Smart Album
automatically change. For more information about Smart Albums, see Chapter 13,
“Grouping Images with Smart Albums,” on page 151.
Changes made to versions in albums have no effect on the original digital master files
on your computer’s hard disk. If you delete a version from one album, the digital
master file is not deleted from the hard disk.
