It might be my old eyes but this looks super saturated. Like a bright primary coloured picture. I watched "Vera Cruz" with Gary Cooper and Burt Lancaster today on U.K. TV. It was glorious Technicolor - just about OK for Westerns but I preferred Eastman Deluxe. Cooler and bluer but of course more muted.

It does jump out and grab your attention but so do strident things and people that don't enhance my life.

I could of course be in a minority of one.I'd love to see some of these in Fuji Pro colour neg or Kodak Portra NC for a comparison or even say Provia or another less saturated colour medium.

Wow, colour, colour..... maybe too much here. I do love the blue-orange reflection in the lake.
Maybe another shot here in close to include just the reflections.
