Hello Michael, Yes, I know how the brain works and can produce so wonderful images by stacking the crap the eyes produce. However, when a camera makes my skin redder than what it actually is, I do not agree. I do agree that people may prefer flashy colours than what they are. Many friends of mine, as they shoot weddings, for instance, process their already over-saturated jpegs so that the skin gets even more saturated. I do prefer more natural tints. I read a thread on github - among many others -, where a user shows pictures processed with darktable 2.6.x and 3.0.x, and complains that the ones from the later are not so accurate than the ones from the earlier, which he prefers. For almost all his samples, I found the ones from 3.0.x more natural than the ones from 2.6.x. But, once again, it is a matter of taste. And maybe I am too down-to-earth...
