I am a newbie in both photography and darktable, and enjoying it quite a lot so far. Both require a steep learning curve which makes it more fun. Also, this has been forcing me to go and walk around and look for potential shots.
One morning I was rushing for the sunrise but unfortunately there were no clouds to get something interesting. Saw this Boat passing by leaving a trail behind and I quickly tried to capture it. The photo is rather underexposed and 200 ISO. Here is the raw file - IMG_1598.CR2 (25.7 MB)
Any criticism and tips for improving the processing (also on the snapshot itself) would be much appreciated. I have been lurking around this forum for bit and finally joined to get feedback and improve
IMHO it’s underexposed by at least 1 stop, and that’s counting the specular highlights in the sun/clouds, which you can probably let clip without issues (in which case, you get 1 – possibly 2 – more stops of headroom).
