Nostalgic, soft tone and vintage film recipes using Fujifilm film simulations
Muted Gold, for Warm Nostalgic Images
Classic chrome film simulation recipe with soft golden tones
Some film recipes bring a strongly uniform look across a set of images, helping a series of photos work together. Muted Gold is such a recipe with a specific look from a strong colour shift paired with muted saturation and softened shadows.
The colour balance is very warm, but particularly brings a lot of mellow character out in the greens of a scene. This pale and creamy green is warm and nostalgic, giving a ‘last days of summer’ feel to photos. As the seasons change around us, this recipe should be a good choice for autumn photography too.
