I just looked back at the bridge picture, and on my monitor, the
trees are green, a little warm and a little dark maybe, but
green. That may be because they're underexposed, since I exposed
for the rusty bridge against a gray sky. I also looked at all the
prints again. I would say this film tends toward the warm side,
as you would expect from a film intended for portraiture, but I
don't think it goes too far that way. Besides, it was autumn, and
even in Texas the trees sometimes get a little bit of color. :-)
Not like Tennessee, though!
