Editing Lunar Photos in Darktable

[@travellingjournalist966]

hiya is it possible to colour the moon up in DT i don't mean just one colour but several colours so sections a different colours thanks

[@oscarsmx]

Thanks!!!!! I had an over expossed photo of the Moon, without detail; now I have a beauty piece of the moon that I can show to my friends. Thanks, Thanks and more Thanks!

Excellent video Leander! I've never tried lunar/astrophotography before. It looks cool.

Thanks. It just takes more massaging of the data. There are details and colors are all there, they're just faint until you bump things up a little. Thanks for the tip on the AMAZE demosaic for helping with chromatic aberration too. Been using that lately.

I think you might get rid of that contour around the moon if you had used a parametric mask on the tone mapping to leave out the sky and blurring the mask a bit so it creeps in just past the edge of the moon.

Yeah, I've done that before but it wasn't bad enough here to worry about IMO. You only really see it at 150%. I usually paint in my masks though. I've never really been able to get what I like out of the parametric masks.

Don't take this the wrong way, you are very good using Darktable, but you need to work on your video skills. It was kind of hard to follow you (I did pauses and rewind more than one time). Do not use words like "this" or "that" to refer to things, it is hard to follow; also, put a bigger font. Thanks for sharing this, I got a fantastic shoot now.
