Yes, I’m aware of that. I would think that you still wouldn’t get those colors to look like that with saturated film if you didn’t also have the correct weather conditions for things to look naturally bright and colorful in real life as well.

Actually, the photographer used a film that saturates the greens
Porque no los dos?
Because it isn’t both.
The he actual photographer said that this image was straight from camera, but they used a film that saturates certain colours.
