As with many of my recipes, Street Sage is a result of experimenting. I wanted to see what would happen if you took the rich Velvia and reduced color, contrast and gave it a slight green tint. I like these experiments. I think you can get some interesting results depending on what you’re shooting with it.

This was made on an X-Trans III camera but you can adapt it to most Fujifilm cameras.
