https://youtu.be/tGVpM3KXBCQ Well…I have 3 cameras again. I'm hopeless, seriously. I need help. G.A.S. is real and I have no cure, lol, but allow me to attempt to justify my purchase of the Fujifilm X-T2 to the gods of photography gear.

Ever since I created my first Bleach Wash recipe I knew I wanted to revisit this look and create another variation. Just like Bleach Wash 1 I created this on my X-T1 but I tried to keep this recipe compatible with as many X-Series cameras as possible. This should work on X-Pro1 and X-E1 cameras...
