• Ask HN: Which "open-source alternatives" have succeeded?

  Fairly well known on HN by now but Krita is also excellent and simple image editor and painting app like Photoshop was 20 years ago https://krita.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Cancel Adobe if you are a creative under NDA with your clients

  Well, there is Serif's suite: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/ (There's also a Photo and page layout app) or the open-source stuff: - https://krita.org/en/ - https://inkscape.org/ - https://www.scribus.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Cancel Adobe if you are a creative under NDA with your clients

  These are all valid alternatives with real world use, but none of them are Photoshop, and that's kinda the problem we face. Krita - https://krita.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Photoshop ToS grants Adobe access to user projects for 'content moderation'

  I migrated away from Adobe after Photoshop CS6 which I believe was the last release before they switched over to a subscription only pricing model. If you're looking for a Photoshop alternative to break away from the incredibly user hostile relationship with Adobe I can heartily recommend either Krita (open source) or Pixelmator (Mac only). Pixelmator Pro is my daily driver for image related work and is incredibly... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Paint.net

  Check out Krita[0]. It's what I used after leaving Windows - a little different, maybe 25% more complicated, but has everything you need. If you just want a MS Paint replacement, KolourPaint[1] is the way to go [0] https://krita.org/en/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• First attempt at astro | a7II + Tamron 17-28 f/2.8

  You can stack images if you want a cleaner result. https://sites.google.com/site/sequatorglobal/ is a good easy to use option. Can also do panoramas or both. Use something like stellarium to find something you want to photograph. clearoutside.com can help with weather and moon phases. Make sure to shoot when there isn't any moon light. https://www.lightpollutionmap.info/ can help finding dark locations. Photopills... Source: almost 3 years ago

• Sony a6000 + Sigma 30mm f/1.4

  If you are a windows user, you can also use the program sequator (https://sites.google.com/site/sequatorglobal/). It will line up the images for you, and you can then do post processing in photoshop to improve whatever you need to to get the colors and images right. You can also add in dark images to remove camera noise. Really sweet program for night photography. Source: about 3 years ago

• The Milky Way over the Knockmealdown mountains and Clogheen, as seen from the Galty Mountains

  It's 30 x 15s exposures at 1600 ISO, all stacked in Sequator, which is free software that tracks stars and allows you to accurately stack images despite the stars moving. There was a little editing afterwards, but nothing major, the stacking does most of the work. Source: about 3 years ago

• New astro-photographer looking for first telescope advice.

  I recommend you test your star tracker mount to see how good/bad is the periodic error, etc. One example of how to test: Https://philhart.com/content/star-adventurer-review#:~:text=Performance,minute%20period%20of%20the%20worm. Then you can do some math: if my tracker error is X arcseconds, and my camera pixel size is Y microns...I can use a lens of Z focal length and only have star trailing of W pixels. (And...

• Optimal Settings for Fuji X-T100. First Time Shoot Last Night

  What you can also do, is take many pictures and stack them using a free software like Deep Sky Stacker or the simpler and also free sequator . By doing that, this will reduce the noise of the higher ISO and will help you edit your photos better. Source: over 3 years ago
