RawTherapeed:

spring is coming, like a rebirth of everything that was dead spring is coming, like a rebirth of everything that was dead

the process of picture post processing with RawTherapee (available for GNU Linux (Debian), Windows, OSX) was done like this:

  • load the picture and hit “auto levels”
  • then go through every setting from top to bottom
  • until the user likes the output more than the input (it is up to taste)
    • warning: too much contrast will lose details

S21_Ultra_10x_zoom_Stork.RawTherapeed

RawTherapee gave the better results with those pictures, but with Gimp it is also possible to enhance some (not all) pictures like this:

Colors -> Levels:

  • warning: too much contrast will lose details!
  • (RawTherapee seems to do a better job at enhancing colors WHILE keeping the details, at least with the Stork picture)

also a bit of sharpening: Filters -> Enhance -> Sharpen
