I like the composition and mood of this shot a lot, but I don’t think the green color tint adds to the Renaissance feel. Underexposed areas often show this green tint, especially on Fuji color film. I’m curious to see how it looks with less green.

Adjusting the white point is super common in analog photography/scanning. Printing the negative in a dark room also involves an adjustable color head.

I know, this dates back to when I was still learning how to scan and reverse. Honestly I'm still not very good at it, I use grain2pixel now and at least this makes a good baseline. On top of that I mishandled that roll back then, it shows a lot on the scan.

I just did a quick adjustment of black and white points, this is what it looks like.

How's this? All hand adjusted, bit brighter too so you can actually see, but if you dim it back down, it still looks lovely. I have colour correcting experience from editing video so let me know if anything is off
