jpg has 8 bits per channel meaning it can display only 256 distinct shades of gray.
camera raws tend to have lots more bits than that. is there a way to fit more of these grays into the evil format we call jpg?
perhaps we can dither the higher bit depth data into the jpg? darktable has a dither option but im not surrrrrrre if its doing what im talking about here. i think this is something i need to play around with in gimp.
my other idea for fitting that higher tonal data into a jpg is to use false colors to represent more gray tones, producing a fun gradient of colors from light to dark??
anyway whatever heres a picture with the darktable dither on auto and with it on 1 bit for fun.
that's much better. shooting at iso 12800 in the daylight
ehhh. the ones of nifty thru the fence and liz popping off at getting a honk from a truck turned out nice though (the thin depth of field makes me feel ill) (even though it looks Good) (remember when i used to like it? lol)
BEWARE
walm art
editing way lazy but maybe the better way to look at it is i'm sharpening my "edit quickly" skills
crushing out more detail
this area's in an 'extreme drought' i think
i would consider these shots somewhat hastily edited but i got what i wanted which is the skies having a full range of tones from black to white

someone added to the bit by smashing up the shelves and blocking off the door
