Hi Glad, It doesn't really need any tricks or blending modes on Velvia, just apply more than once if you want an even stronger effect or a mask if you want only a selected area processed. Or add an instance of vibrance rather than two velvias.
Not all things have to be difficult :-) Rgds, Rob. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Glad Mihai [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 04 December 2013 14:03 To: Victor L Cc: Darktable-users Subject: Re: [Darktable-users] Lab curves vs. velvia vs. vibrance Hi Victor, Thanks for the great tip. I will look into it. I am familiar with multiple instances, but I thought someone could point me some specific tricks, i.e. a first instance of velvia that is only applied to a certain blending mode, and another instance that is applied to another blending mode. Can anybody help?
