A cosy Astia film simulation recipe to boost any last splashes of fall color.
Over the past few weeks, I have been busy adding new recipe ideas to the upcoming Film Recipes App that I am trying my best to build. This has meant fewer recipe releases on the site, so I thought I should use the Thanksgiving holiday to pause for a moment, say ‘thank you‘ to all my readers for their support!
This recipe is designed to show off any last bits of fall color which, here in the UK, are now becoming harder to find. In a few more weeks, the trees will be bare and winter tones will be on our minds. For now though, let’s see if we can find some orange and red with this cosy film recipe. Have fun!

Astia is a lovely film simulation to work with when you have colour in frame. Also see Waldorf Astia, Soft Power and Eldorado for more inspiration.
