Download Ilford B&W Presets with Curves and How To work with RT Curves

Today I’m going to take a closer look at how to work with curves.Because I can imagine that many wonder how you actually make such a curve, and especially how you adjust it.Actually this is not difficult at all, Rawtherapee even has a tool to help you with that. First of all : the purpose
