Is there a good place to find #darktable presets ?? I'm trying to learn how to use that as light-room just isn't worth the monthly fees, and while I like Raw Threapee it's kind of clunky to use
Sulphur-crested Cockatoo (Cacatua galerita) - Kedron Brook Wetlands Reserve, Brisbane, Australia - May 2024
A very similar shot to yesterday, but this time using what I've learned about masking in darktable to pull the cockatoo out of the background some more.
I think I am genuinely starting to prefer darktable to Lightroom! That is not something I saw coming when I first started to play around with it, but as I become more proficient with the masking tools and what they are capable of in darktable, I am continually impressed with just how powerful they are (albeit, not as intuitive to use as Lightrooms AI guided masks)
Ya, the contrast is over the top. Just playing around with parametric masks in Darktable. Trying to see how far I could push it. (Phacelia campanularia, desert bluebell.)
