Not a problem :).  Here is a straight digital image:

And one in K25 (with grain) by Exposure 2:

Wonder what a real Kodachrome 25 image of this would look like (aside from
being black because of the ISO)?  I have stacks of Kodachrome 25 slides from
1960-70, most of more or less interchangeable mountains that might work in a
Coors commercial.
