@patdavid I've been using the darktable pre-releases for a few weeks now and absolutely love all the new features. They're all "killer features", IMHO. The new masking, filmic, retouch, collect improvements — everything.

This is such an amazing release!

@patdavid What's super cool is that the new version darktable even helps better recover some great images that I goofed up with when shooting or were challenging with the dynamic range.

And the filmic module can even help fix up old JPEGs from ages ago (before I shot raw) and also cell phone snapshots. It's not just for raw files. 😁

And the masking is phenomenal. It's probably the biggest game changer, as it works with basically all the other modules.

Community member Chris takes the time to assemble an awesome calendar based on results from several of our Play Raw posts throughout the year.

Remember you can download the raw files for any of these images to practice with as well!

I made a website for the Libre Graphics Meeting 2019 in Saarbrücken, Germany next year!

It's not the official site - they went a different direction, but I figured rather than letting the design languish I would at least share it...
