Sounds pretty cyberpunk that adblockers could soon be a guerilla group sabotaging rocket launches instead of FOSS devs

This is the northern hemisphere, just a picture I took in the summer and found now while cleaning up my image folders

Found this image when cleaning up my SD card. It’s a small local flooded gravel pit. The color of the water is natural and comes from the limestone gravel that the Alps rivers and glaciers left here over the millenia.

Yeah, if you like playing with compositions they are a great tool :)

I use a DJI mini 3, changed the rotors to new ones that have a bit more lift and make less noise, added a polarization filter and thereby all in all upgraded it for 30 bucks compared to out of the factory configuration.

My thoughts: I absolutely love it. You see my complaints about the weird raw file format that is hard to process properly but apart from that it’s so very nice. It is small mobile, the controls work excellent and the only regret I have is not spending the extra money to get the pro version that would have had the nice follow modes for shooting video.

Mostly I use it for making outdoor videos when hiking, biking or paddling and it is bringing me lots of joy :) Have not found a good video service yet (tried the fediverse version but didn’t perform well, don’t like YouTube), otherwise there would be about as many nice outdoor video shots from me as there are photos ^^

Thank you :)

Hmm, I read a thread on darktable about it. The devs said the problem with that kind of Pixel-based correction is that it’s running counter to all their data processing and they’d basically have to rewrite their raw processor from scratch. I totally get it that that’s a lot to ask from an open source team, so no complaints there.

Already through most of the tips in this list,

• the dji drone provides DNG files
• tried affinity and rawtherapee, both without success, same problem

The x-rite color checker is something I’ve ever heard of before though, I’ll give it a shot, thanks!

just downloaded the software and gave it a try - same issue as most others. It doesn’t ingest the pixel-wise correction matrix and therefore gives an image that is blighted and has a red-shift in the middle, while getting some vignette in the corners…

That’s awesome, thank you! I’ll do that but it will take a day or two as the easiest way to spot the difference is when shooting an even colored scene and seeing the red tint in the middle.

I’ll get back to you with a download link once it’s done

If you find one that’s not a subscription service and is able to read DNG’s weird color correction matrix tell me, I’ll be all ears. But so far I had no luck and not for lack of investing time in the search…

Also thank you so much for the inspiration with the regional contrast on the other image :) that was the motivation to try out here

In this case snapseed. It seems to be the only software apart from Adobe PS that can correctly read the .DNG raw files from my dji mini 3.

For more ambitious projects I preprocess in snapseed, export a high quality jpeg and push that through gimp afterwards

Thanks!

Mid December on a skiing trip in the Dolomites (Marmolada Glacier region). Shot from a drone though, so not a place you can reach on foot.

Sorry, was busy with work. Yes, shot again on the drone. Was the highest I’ve ever flown, above 3000m… It’s in a Ski-resort in the Dolomites.

This is the original for comparison

OK. No news images this week but worked on some drone video footage we took on a recent trip to the Dolomites
