I would go with E100G. It looks like you want negative and out of that probably Ektar. I just took some really nice photos on E100G of a sunset and I was really pleased. I can try to scan some of the prints in a little while.

That's a really nice shot! It is ver empowering. It looks weird to look at a sunset on B&W since most are taken in color.....

I would use the Portra VC, and save the Ektar for something a little less dramatic. Perhaps even Portra NC. On the other hand, you won't have lab monkeys playing with your color if you use slide film.
