WOW - overwhelming feedback -thanks a lot for the flowers everyone.
Seems film is not dead - this was Velvia 50 on a Mamiya 7 ii, PPed in Photoshop.
Something is different with my film captures - I love the colors I get from it.
My subjective impression is,
there is more differentiation and more pleasing color in at least some parts of the images I take on film,
especially sky and cloud colors in morning or evening light look very pleasing.
Cheers
