Darktable Workshop

Software darktable

Since more than two years I‘m more a silent reader of this forum. I‘ve learned a lot from all of you about darktable, G‘MIC, Gimp (to name the ones I use most) and Image processing in general.

So thank you for your help so far!

For a long time I wondered how I could give something back to the community.

Now I have found an opportunity to do so. In our local evening school I will give a workshop on darktable!

In two sessions, each 3hours long, I will teach the basics about raw processing with darktable.

My goal is that at the end of the course the participants are able to manage and edit pictures with darktable. For this I plan to introduce the most important modules and the basic principles of darktable.

I will create some presentation slides which I like to publish here. For that I would like to use raws from PlayRaw as examples.

Am I right that the licensing “Creative Commons, By-Attribution, Share-Alike” allows me to do so?

Best regards,

Marco

I believe you will need to obey and propagate whatever license the contributor of the original photo specified for their photo. In particular, make sure that CC-BY-SA is not more lenient than the owner specified.

I read the license terms but honestly I’m still not sure if I can use them for education in a school class and for the training material. The deeper I dive into the licensing details the more uncertain I become…

But when I understand it right then I can use the raws published under CC-BY-SA when I name author and license. Is that correct?

Yes, you’re free to use the play raw images for classroom exercises. You should probably credit the photographer and link to the original post.
