I’m not sure what variety of Dahlia this is, but I’m calling it ‘Jazzberry’ based on its vibrant, fuchsia color. Photographed at the Enabling Garden in Altoona, Iowa.

One of the things I want to do is to get rid of pirated software, in the photo editing realm of course, I use to use mostly ligthtroom ( from pirate bay ) and I kinda want to not use it any more. So I searched for alternatives ( free ) and there was 2 main software's Raw Therapee and Darktable. I Chose Darktable because ( at least that is what every one is saying ) it is gives much greater editing options. With that said I started to read it's manual and watch some video tutorials, and I can say that it is a quite good opponent to lightroom actually, it does basically the same things as lightroom but the difference is the layout, and to be honest I kinda like that darktable has more options ( in light and color) than Lightroom. Lightroom is more of a easier to learn at the beginning and it offers faster editing, Darktable it is complicated ( a little bit ) but in the long run ( I've been started to use it for 4 day now 😅 ) it is just as powerful if not even more powerful than lightroom. In Darktable I get the impression that I actually edit a photo. In lightroom I have a impression that I edit it for instagram of facebook. But I might change opinions in time who knows. Comparing the fact that Lightroom cost allot of money and Darktable just a internet conection for download.... I seriously believe that darktable is the winner ( at this moment at least ). Thanks for the visit and have a nice day! 😊
Continuing my series, Maxwell is a small town in Story County, Iowa with around 860 people. Businesses include a small grocery store, a gas station, a bank, medical clinic and funeral home. However, what I find fascinating is the Historical Society’s museum. There are two large century-old buildings plus a machine shed with farm implements. I only show one building in this photo, but the combined museum collection holds over 13,00 items from the 1800’s to date. I find that quite amazing for a small town.

About the series: Life in a small Midwestern town often means a slower pace of life, close-knit communities, and a strong connection to the land and agriculture. Residents typically have a strong sense of pride in their hometown and a friendly, neighborly attitude. Small towns usually have limited employment and entertainment options, but the tradeoff is typically a lower cost of living and a quieter, more peaceful environment. Presented in black and white at night, I hope to capture the essence of a few small Iowa towns in this series. Series Album: flic.kr/s/aHBqjBWTai
re-edited photo from 2019 HSS
I didn't have a great photo editing program in 2019 so I took this favorite photo and edited it in darktable. since it was a jpg not raw some edits didn't work as well, but adding contrast and filmic and chroma and blurring the ground area a little a really added some character to my original and made Bob stand out!
