A warm, sun-drenched landscape recipe designed for late summer coastal and lakeside scenes. Inspired by the saturated yet slightly faded warmth of 1970s Ektachrome slide film, this recipe pushes golden amber tones into skies and water while retaining rich greens in coastal vegetation. Elevated saturation and boosted hue shift everything toward amber-orange, while moderate clarity adds tactile texture to rocks, sand, and rippling water surfaces. Best used during golden hour or late afternoon when low-angle summer light skims across open water, beaches, and shoreline grasses. The slight exposure lift prevents shadows from going too dark, keeping the overall feel open and sun-soaked. Ideal for wide landscape compositions featuring water, sand, and big summer skies.
