I am melting over here. 🫠 Photo taken during my bike commute.


I want to finally give Darktable a good try. Cliff shared a link to darktable.info, which looks like it is a good resource to get started. I am aware that I won't replicate my current workflow in two weeks. It will take more time. But, if I never start, I'll be stuck with Adobe forever.

I also want to put Aphera through its paces. I am not sure how I feel about the way it works from my brief, initial tests – basically layering a bunch of "filters" (I am not doing it justice, I am sure) – but I am willing to also give it a proper test run.

So, hopefully starting in the next few days, I'll start with one of them and post only photos processed with it for a whole week. (Maybe I'll document how I get along with each app, but don't hold your breath.)

Giving Darktable a good try is on my short list as well. I've always wanted to, but it seems daunting. The guide sure makes it look manageable. Hope to get a progress report from you down the road. My goal is to get started next week. As long as I can get out of this home developing black & white film rabbit hole! LOL. https://darktable.info/en/welcome-to-the-modern-darkroom/
