Get outdoors with your Fujifilm camera and this warm Astia film simulation recipe
Valenwood
My personal style of photography is outdoor based, often taken in the woods and forests of the South of England. You’ll have seen many samples across this site, as I test film simulation recipes on my walks and explorations.
Some of my recipes were created with these forests and woodlands in mind, and are especially suited for photowalks in landscape and nature.
The characteristics of these recipes mean that they work well in a wide range of situations, including any outdoor imaging, such as street photography, urban exploration or snaps on vacations and trips.
But where is Valenwood? Well, it’s not a real woodland, but a region in the Elder Scrolls series of video games. Other recipes inspired at least in name in this series include Dawnstar and Jorrvaskr.
