An updated Digital Photography Workflow with Digikam and RawTherapee
Back in October, I created a video showing my workflow with Digikam and RawTherapee. After spending lots of months working with both programs and tinkering to see what works best, I have updated my workflow. Based on the current versions of the programs, here is my updated workflow:

My Raw Workflow in Linux (Digikam and RawTherapee)
