Perfect example of why you should capture scenes which require fine
tonal control in RAW format. And use lower ISOs too .. higher ISOs
generally lose out some tonal differentiation.
The reds are not blown out completely in most cases ... measuring
them on a couple of the pictures show they're in the 240-250 range on
the ISO 800 examples, 220-240 on the ISO 200 ones ... but it will be
difficult to edit them effectively with [EMAIL PROTECTED] to work with. I
put an adjustment layer on top of the base image with 2035, edited
the red curve a little bit and got some more texture, but because of
the lack of bits to work with the red areas 'posterize' rapidly.

Saw these today. So I shot 'em.
But ... what's with the red sensitivity?
The specific complaint -- they look flat.
There's no texture in the red. Looks like Kodak film did this?
(6*** mode).
Can they be processed to improve the appearance?
images 2031 & earlier were shot ISO 800 by mistake.
Later were ISO200 minus 1 stop.
(I'm using PS Elements 2.0)
