  You can win a book in our two contests – the exact rules will be published in the next posting. I continue to work on my project “Access Control”. My target is a photo book by blurb.com. They accept PDF files for printing – which is important for me because most of the book making software of the printers doesn’t work on Linux. Of course there is an Open Sou...

Meet the GIMP #76: UFRaw revisited

Posted in Graphics

I got a mail from Pascal de Bruijn, the man behind the p-code blog. He knows a lot about colour management, RAW processing and so on. He had seen episode 11 and pointed me to some errors and stuff that is new in UFRaw. So I read his mail and had a look. This is really a fast forward through the program, nothing really in depth. It can be a guide for experimenting. If you know not much abou...

I am through a bad cold and nearly through an iris inflammation and so I loved to talk - you get a double dose of MTG tonight. Philippe helped me out last week - and he will be a regular contributor after that success. After I solve the mystery behind the menue entry “Edit/Fade” I tackle an old image. Taken 4 years ago with my old camera (Nikon D70) at ISO 1600 and f=1/1.8. It&rsquo...

This week you are in for a strange show. I try to make an image out of a not so good night shot by Stuart Martin from New Zealand. Stuart had his camera for three days and was experimenting with it. He shot the Christmas decora- tion of his neigh- bour but only got a dark and a bit blurry image. With no specific goal in mind I just played around with UFRaw and layers in GIMP and got a quite nic...

I shot some autumn scenes with a Lensbaby in a very mixed light condition. And I haven’t checked the histogram after this shot. It is the only one with the focus right on spot and a dreamy flair. The leaf in the center was overexposed in the JPG image - blown out highlights ruined the image. This is the final image - not the one with the blown out highlights…. But I had shot in JPG...

The UFRaw home page. A lot of camera profiles. UFRaw The Unidentified Flying Raw (UFRaw) is a utility to read and manipulate raw images from digital cameras. It can be used on its own or as a Gimp plug-in. It reads raw images using Dave Coffin's raw conversion utility - DCRaw. UFRaw supports color management workflow based on Little CMS, allowing the user to apply ICC color profiles. For Nikon ...
