darktable, an open source and free alternative to Light Room. An introduction.

November 20, 2020 in photo editing

The following PDF contains most of the slides of a talk I gave to the Silver Spring Camera Club in September, 2020 about the free, open source program darktable, which is an alternative to Light Room. I’m just a beginner with darktable, so I’ve taken the approach of first finding the modules and the portions of modules which are equivalent to common things one does in Light Room.  darktable offers many more options than Light Room, which makes it both harder to learn at first and more powerful.

Hope you enjoyed the talk’s slides!
