Great video. Thank you. I choose you as my FIRST go-to tutor for Darkroom.

@RicoResolves 6 месяцев назад

Amazing Andrej! I would love to hear why I'm your preferred source! That way, I can learn from it and take it into consideration with next videos!

@andrejgrgic5978 6 месяцев назад

I think that Darktable is a very potent and comprehensive RAW editing tool. The fact that it is so versatile, open source and free means a lot to me. It is not an easiest-to-use tool out there, but it packs a mighty punch. I watched many of your videos while in the process of choosing the right software for my RAF files. The fact that you made excellent "beginner" videos as well as the fact that you have many theme-focused videos is what turned my attention towards your channel. I have to be very focused during your videos (I have to process all of the information you deliver in a relatively short time) and I pause & rewind a lot, but the amount of information I get from your videos is vast. It is up to me to arrange and organise this information in order to create my own MO for using Darktable. The learning curve for Darktable is very steep, imho, but this will not discourage me from learning more. I know that making a good video takes a lot of time and effort and therefore I appreciate what you do and I wish you and your family all the best. Cheers from Croatia 👋🏻

Thank you so much for your insightful comment Andrej. Don't forget that you can always contact me on info@ricoresolves.com if you have questions that haven't been addressed on my channel yet!

Great video! I love the convention of quickly explaining whole process from start to end. While I know this is not everything that could be done here, for a intermediate beginner who knows something about darktable, these short remarks are enough for me to know what is going on, while seeing the end result quickly. Thank you!

One thing that you could have leverage in this image is the gray fulcrum in rgb colorbalance. This lets you set the pivot point for the contrast slider and really lets you dial in the contrast.. People using the module should first set both fulcrum sliders in the mask tab with the auto pickers so that the sliders hit the intended targets...

@RicoResolves 6 месяцев назад

Luckily you're always around to say what could have gone better Todd!

@emrg777 6 месяцев назад

Sorry I didn't mean it that way... but its a key feature of that module that many people are not aware of and its really the way to get the best result with it when modifying contrast. Your focus was on contrast restoration so I thought it was worth a mention.... One other comment... it may have been intentional but it could confuse people in that you were talking about denoising using the contrast equalizer module but you modified the contrast waveforms not the denoise waveform which you would drag up from the bottom... it may have been your approach to the edit but it might have been good to show that just to avoid confusion@@RicoResolves

Hi Rico, thanks for tackling the image. it is very helpful to see such a start to finish approach in DT! I definitely agree that the removal of the green cast is a big improvement! Chris

@RicoResolves 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Chris, glad you liked it. I appreciate you sending me the photo and allowing me to work with it!

@gracekoscielna1044 23 дня назад

the video is great, although I am struggling with the basics. Pretty much when you say to take the notepad and write down all that is wrong... I don't even know with some of them what exactly is wrong besides it clearly is off. So great to see where things can be improved but probably I need to look for some basics on what this editing actually does.

@RicoResolves 23 дня назад

Please write your questions that you have when editing here. If you do it now, I'll make a video on it tomorrow and will upload it on Sunday. Let me know what you need help with and I will address it!

I love these types of videos. I always learn a lot about how to use Darktable. What do you recommend for AI denoise tool/sharpening tool for exclusive Linux users?

@RicoResolves 6 месяцев назад

Awesome Brian, thank you for sharing your thoughts! Topaz Denise AI works under Wine I believe. It's the best denoise tool. My friend Anthony Morganti makes videos on Topaz, check him out :)!

@tomwd.2825 2 месяца назад

I am sorry, but serious editing starts with white balance not ends with it. You should redo all the steps after applying it because it influences all the steps done before. Just look at the contrast after doing it... left side of the blurry green is almost invisible after WB. A little pro tip, ad some vignette after finishing edit... makes the birds pop more... a litte warmth after neutralizing WB is helping also...

The first hint for beginners should be - consider RAW photos!

@RicoResolves 5 месяцев назад

True, but in the era where most people shoot with their phone... I might need to do more jpg photos lol. To tell people how to extract the maximum from it

@Eigil_Skovgaard 5 месяцев назад

@@RicoResolves But Rico, editing jpgs in Darktable is like mixing good whisky with coke.

@RicoResolves 5 месяцев назад

If it gives you that buzz that you're searching for, it should matter haha!

@Eigil_Skovgaard 5 месяцев назад

@@RicoResolves Oh, sorry, what a blunder - I actually meant a variant of Coca-Cola - I'll change it to: '.. like mixing good Whisky with Chocomilk' - i.e. it's a waste of good whisky - an act of blasphemy. Or more simply put - if your are an average phone shooter then a matching Google editor would do ;O) Most people struggle with learning Darktable to create excellent raw images, because Darktable primarily is for raw editing. But I get it, Rico, you don't want to reject a jpg from a supporter, and neither would I (even if I had one).
