Cereal Killer, with Impactful Wheaty Tones

Eterna Bleach Bypass, tuned for shooting impactful landscape photos

I grew up in a small village in a rural area and I always enjoyed the way that farmland changed through the seasons. There was the season of baby animals, starting with the lambs, and working through pigs and cows.

As the spring turned into summer, crops would be bursting into flower and become heavy with seed. My favourites were the wheat, barley and oat fields with their change from green to gold, followed by the hot and hard work of the harvest.

I still enjoy a visit to a farm, and will often wander along field edges to photograph crops in themorning or evening light. You’ll maybe have seen images on this site from some of those walks.

For the creamy tones of summer crops and a bright blue sky with fluffy clouds, the Eterna Bleach Bypass simulation is a great choice for impactful images with a muted colour tone. This is the starting point for the Cereal KIller recipe, which is tuned to suit photography outdoors, landscapes and rural and small town scenes.
