How to create camera noise profiles for darktable
https://pixls.us/articles/how-to-create-camera-noise-profiles-for-darktable/
Andreas Schneider walks through producing a noise profile for your camera to use in darktable (with their Profiled Denoise module). It's not as hard as you might think it is! :)

She was only 4 and wanted to play with dads camera. This is one of her shots.
disclaimer: I helped crop it a bit. :)

In my madness for mean averaging videos a while back, I remembered that I had collected all of the James Bond opening sequences with the gun barrel view.
Here's what they all look like mean-averaged together. :)
I've also included what each of the individual films openings look like as well.

Want to learn how to edit video with Free Software?
The Kdenlive team will be holding their spring sprint in Paris next week, and two of the days will be open to the public. Then they are off to Seville, to the annual Libre Graphics Meeting.
Come make movies with us!

A slightly cooler color grading, and a slightly more closed-off posture. Hoping to slightly enhance "vulnerability" and coldness... (basically the opposite of Mairi completely. :) ).

New #PlayRaw for you to process and share your results (or see how others did it)!
Come see and share your approach to processing this Tulip (using your favorite Free Software, of course).

Simple one-light setup and getting in (a little) closer.

I may have posted this long ago, but I like it so much it deserves a second time... :D
My wife and muse. Helping me test a new softlighter a few years back.

These tools are so helpful! I probably wouldn't be in this mess had I appropriately managed my photo files for the past 10 years with a consistent FLOSS tool in a consistent way.
That said, I'm certainly enjoying working through the process, talking with all of you via the wonderful Mastodon, and fretting over a few corrupted CR2 files (still working on a best way to partially view -- gthumb & darktable crash).
Thanks to all who work on the tools!

As in, the Everglades. Home.
Full of sharp, pointy things.

Hey @ryangorley or @ted did anyone happen to grab any images of the booth that I can use for a post on gimp.org? I'm pulling something together now.
