Astia Film Simulation Recipe that captured Spring and Summer Greens
All of a sudden, the bare bitterness of Winter has disappeared and green leaves are everywhere again. These bold and bright greens can be tricky to capture, and some film recipes make them look washed out or brown. That’s when a springtime film recipe with a focus on green tones is needed, and this one might be just the right one for your next photo session. It’s lovely in trees and woodlands, and anywhere with natural greens.
Astia is a vibrant film simulation with exciting colour and tone. With some simple adjustments, these base qualities can be steered towards a look that loves green leaves and spring and summer colours. It retains a natural feel, and adds just the right amount of warmth and contrast control. Some of this control comes from the Color Chrome Effect, but this recipe is also easy to adapt to older Fujifilm cameras that don’t have this option.
