I really enjoy your videos, especially the use of new modules. It's sometimes not so obvious, how to use those, therefore inspiration is very welcome. Great channel. In this image I think, your edit could use a little more punch in contrast and color, don't you think? Maybe, it's just my monitor though.
I'm not sure what's going on with the Retouch tool but my opposing circle does the same thing from a great distance at the start. Great tips and tricks for those developing a workflow
You did a one click on chromatic aberration. There are several options/adjustments such as radius, green/red etc. I do find it useful to change these for fringing around high contrast parts of the image. good tip for the colour equaliser module. BTW, please, PLEASE, don't ever be tempted to add BBM (bloody background music). I absolutely hate it. Your channel is pretty much perfect presentation wise. I'm quite fond of the tone equaliser module for balancing sky and foreground.
@@bernym4047 yeah, when I get to an image with some trickier CA I'll explore the options in more detail, this was fairly well handled from the get go. No plans to add background music, never fear! 😄
Congratulations on your always very clear, fast, informative videos! I see that when you use the Retouch module to erase some detail along the borders of the photo you resort to the Enlarge Canvas module in order to have more room for action around it. Personally in cases like these I find it much more practical to activate the ISO 12646 Colour Assessment tool. What do you think?
@@DarktableLandscapes Another tip on the Retouch module: It is always unpredictable which source area will be chosen to clone or heal a point you wish to remove, sometimes with absurd effects, but with the circle and ellipse tool you can choose an area to use as an origin, simply by not releasing the mouse after selecting the point you want to erase and dragging the mouse over the desired source area before releasing the mouse button.

Very useful, as have been all your videos, and a nice addition to regularly learning Darktable alongside Bruce and Boris.
@@emmypuss4533 the true masters!
Have you tried darkening the skies with a multiply blend and a gradient mask? It brings up the clouds very nicely when applicable.
Good job as always!
@@randall.chamberlain yeah there are lots of ways to skin the proverbial cat!
I quite like to use the multiply blend mode for skies too.

@@danielspenner3683 I noodle around with new modules so you don't have to 😄 It looked punchy enough at my end but monitors are funny things.

Great tutorial. Thanks

Tone Equalizer also pretty much gets rid of any halo effect around high contrast edges.
+1 for the color equalizer tip 👍
Nice edit.
Well done.
@@tonyb2760 thanks Tony 🙏

I'll have to try that one, good tip 👍

@@sgb6367 that one I knew, I just always forget to do it 😄
Is there somewhere we can see more of your photos?
Would it be possible for you to share the photo file so we can use it to practice alongside your video?
I don't generally give out my raw files, sorry. The processes should work on more or less any photo of course.
