Hi,
When I shoot colour neg I usually shoot Reala, but I've noticed that I quite
often get fluorescent green grass? This is from mini lab prints at different
labs and from my own scans of the negs.
Has any one else noticed this? Its just looks really unnatural and wrong.
Thanks,
Paul
If Kermit had had Reala the world would have missed out on, "It Ain't Easy, Being Green".
Actually, Reala's green enhancing characteristics make ordinary greens look a lot like some of the chemically hopped up lawns around here (which also look unnatural and wrong). It sure can catch you by surprise when you aren't expecting it. It's a very nice film, aside from that quirk (in my opinion).
