Liquify, liquify?

Most modules in darktable are working on changing pixels color, lightness, etc. Few modules are moving pixels and when they do they are doing it in a very constraint way like to rotate, fix the lens’ distortions or remove spots. The liquify module offer more ways to move pixels around by applying some free style distortions to parts of the image. There is three tools to help doing that: point line curve Each tool is based on nodes.

Print Module

After being in the camera our pictures deserve some love and to be shared. Every photographer will tell you the joy of having a picture in the hands. At last the pixels have taken form on a piece of paper to give birth to a photography which can be put on the wall! Though, printing is not easy, there are many technical aspects to take into account. To streamline this process darktable has been added a print module.

Importing Lightroom Development

One of the most time consuming work for any photographer is probably the development process. Lot of time behind a computer screen to adjust the curves, the contrast, the colors, the sharpness… All these are application specific, that is, the development process done with Lightroom is not compatible with AfterShot Pro or darktable (to name just few raw processing softwares around). This makes it really difficult to move from one software to another.
