Vivid Chrome — A Fujifilm Recipe for X and GFX Cameras

Fujifilm Nordic asked if I’d be interested in making a Film Simulation Recipe specifically designed for Denmark that would be unveiled at the upcoming Fujikina event in Copenhagen next month. Of course I said yes! I made three Recipes, and then traveled to Solvang and Catalina Island in California to test them out. Solvang is probably the most Danish town in America, so that was an obvious choice. Catalina Island has more of a Mediterranean vibe than Baltic Sea, but it’s colorful and leans slightly European, making it another good option. After photographing with each of the three Recipes at those two locations, the winner was obvious to me. That Recipe will be unveiled in Copenhagen in a little less than a month, and published on Fuji X Weekly a short time later. Second place was Avalon Ace, which is currently available in the Fuji X Weekly App. This Recipe, called Vivid Chrome, came in last; however, it’s very nice, and I’m sure many of you will appreciate it. Even though it didn’t win, it’s still a winner.
