As already mentioned, modules in Darktable can be treated as adjustment layers in Photoshop or corresponding tools in Lightroom. On YouTube there are a lot more tutorials on Color grading in commercial software from Adobe. But nothing can stop us to recreate same effects in our favorite FOSS. Here my turn. I have recreated two color grading effects I watched recently. Why not to share with our community? Here they are.
It should be mentioned that styles need to be adjusted to specific photo. It is always like that, in fact. Thanks to non-destructive editing feature of Darktable, they can be tweaked easy.
How do I use these presets. Is there a loader or are the called from the program or do I insert in a folder. I haven’t used Darktable for processing except making jpg from raw.
Styles in darktable are just a set of presets for various modules. You can assign them to an image whenever you wish. Once the style has been assigned it’s the same as if you set all the settings manually so you can just tweak them further to your liking.
