Eterna Bleach Bypass film recipe with deep contrast and nature tones

With so many film recipes available to choose between, you begin to find several that look quite similar. This deep tones look is a counter to all those soft creamy recipes designed to be a bit like Kodak Portra! Instead, this one brings a deep character, that sends shadows into inky blackness and draws attention to the highlights. I particularly enjoy using it on sunny mornings and in particulat on walks in autumn or winter woodlands.

It’s close cousin is my Vinterskog film recipe, but this one has a brown and gold, occasionally purple tone to it, where Vinterskog is more blue and green.

The base simulation for this film recipe is Eterna Bleach Bypass. I’ve discussed before how much I enjoy working with this, giving a wide range of looks, and something really quite unlike the output of any other camera brand. But, this does mean it is limited to a narrower selection of cameras. The new X100VI has it, but the popular X100V does not, for example.

If you have a camera that supports it, I really do recommend trying a number of Eterna Bleach Bypass recipes, especially in sunny conditions as autumn rolls in to the Northern hemisphere. Maybe it will become your favourite too?
