Hi Mica,
In the Netherlands we have a “intelligent lock down”. People are not 100% prohibited to go outside for a walk, run or something like a " photoshoot" :)). We have social distancing. So minimum 1,5 meter distance is applicable. Yes now i can not travel to really good photo-locations. I’am not permitted to go into Belgium (the forests are beautiful in Belgium). The border is 1 kilometer from home:((. I normally go to shoot in Belgium. But now I do take images in my local forest in Eijsden Netherlands. So I have some possibilities.
Concerning the lua script in Darktable is more like a homerun in baseball for me. I do not shoot often focus stacked images (with my fuji XT-2). But when i do have those images it comes really in handy to have a functionality to make it easy to focus blend or exposure blend in my favorite Darktable. It is nice to edit everything in one editor. And I realy like Darktable. I use Gimp only for printing.
Last week I did shoot some images in my local forest that i now can blend together in Darktable. I do not do any macro but this is also good for blending macro images.
Hope everything is Ok at your place. Stay save.
Greetings from the Netherlands,
Ruud.
