Brontosaurus, Bold Bronze Bleach Bypass

Brown and bronze toned fillm simulation recipe using Eterna Bleach Bypass

Here’s a Fujifilm film simuation recipe that’s full of creamy coffee toned bronze character. It uses Eterna Bleach Bypass for an impactful look, with a strong bronze tone colour shift. It has a big impact on the look of your photos, and so it needed a big name, like Brontosaurus.

By using Eterna Bleach Bypass, this recipe rules out older cameras, so if you don’t have this simulation on yours, take a look at Coffee Chrome for a similar look based on Classic Chrome.

For those of us, with Bleach Bypass, we can enjoy the deep contrast that it offers, along with the muted colour palette that allows for the single tone of the colour balance shift to add distinctive character.

The result is something quite unique, and of course, this won’t be a general use film recipe to use in all conditions. It feels a little like a colorised sepia recipe for old tone images, and I have great fun using it to capture a new look to familiar scenes. Give it a try, and I am sure you will have fun too.
