Download Darktable 2.6.1

Darktable has released version 2.6.1 of the open source raw photo editing program of the same name. Darktable is a virtual light box and darkroom for photo editing. It manages digital negatives through a database. The raw photo files are developed by means of so-called sidecar files, where the photos are processed in a non-destructive manner. The software is available for various Linux distributions, macOS and Windows. However, the Windows build is still labeled as experimental marked. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

• Export module to piwigo
• Color balance enhancements
• Color contrast enhancements
