#RAWTHERAPEE SPOT REMOVAL INSTALL#

With Ubuntu, it’s easy to install as a dual-boot, so you choose which operating system to use on start-up. I’m currently using Ubuntu, but there are plenty of others ( Fedora, Red Hat, Mint). If you really want to go the open source route, it might be worthwhile trying a Linux operating system. I have had issues with GIMP being unstable in Windows and have had (almost) no trouble running any of these in Linux. Linux rant – feel free to skip: All of these tools are avilable for Linux, Windows, and Mac. exiftool (only for copying exif info back to a tif if edited in GIMP).RawTherapee (very similar to lightroom).This tutorial here is more in-depth, should be easy enough if you are new and not totally comfortable with the software, and will make future work easier to automate – it’s definitely more to learn, but if you take a lot of photos time will be saved in the long run. If you want some simpler answers to processing aurora photographs (with easier to use software and interface), check out the above link.

In this installment I’ll be using RawTherapee, a program very similar to Lightroom.

( more info)Īs I eagerly await the release of GIMP 2.10 that will support both 16 and 32 bit color depth, I figured it’s a fine time to continue what I started with aurora post processing 1: white balance and noise and give a more in depth tutorial on processing digital aurora images (using all open-source software).
