The funny part is that we were all just commenting on the vivid reds of Kodachrome and here I am with this shot. I did find that a levels adjustment worked, but I may want a contradiction, i.e., vivid reds and details. I probably should try this with a different lens just to see. It's just nice to use this lens again since it's the first interchangeable camera lens I ever had (1974).
