Uranium Glow, Radioactive Alien Green Look

Extreme film simulation recipe for glowing irradiated green photos

I recently created the Copper film recipe with orange tones in golden hour. Shortly after, Marcel Fraij released Pale Platinum film recipe (scroll to no. 10) with muted cool muted tones. We got to chatting about which other metals should have a recipe, and somewhat jokingly, we decided the Uranium would be a fun challenge.

So, complete with bright green colour shift and a hazy glow around highlights, here is Uranium Glow. It’s a recipe for fun, for extreme styling and for making greens almost radioactive in their intensity. I’m sure it could be fun in unusual settings, like streets under artificial light, or just when you want something different. Have fun with it 💚
