heya,

i'm glad you asked :) i suppose you can try using the bilateral filter
smoothing in the current shadows/highlights module, use some
parametric blending based on the sky colours, or try something with
the equalizer (that uses an edge-aware algorithm).

however, i also have a module in very experimental stage with a simple
slider that should `just work'. so if you have any particularly
challenging samples for me to test this on that would be great!



Well, I'm glad your replied!
That sounds like it's just what the doktor ordered.
I'll have a snoop through my archive to see if I can find any samples for  
you.

Sometimes what might work is changing the "soften with" parameter from 
"Gaussian" to "bilinear filter" (fourth option in the module).

[darktable-user] How to avoid a halo

[Terry Duell]

Hello All,
A lot of my photography is of birds and often the bird is shot against a  
bright sky.

Decreasing highlights often results in a visible halo.
Are there any ways of avoiding this?
