Background: Kodachrome, with such vibrant colors that Paul Simon even wrote a song about it. It was created by "God and Man" (Leopold Godowsky Jr. and Leopold Mannes) in the 1930s. SADLY, I did not take many Kodachrome photos myself. The process went kaput when the last lab shut down and it's not a process that people can just do at home, unlike other slide films. So when a company that sells digital presets that simulate film-look wanted to release a Kodachrome preset, they just asked people to send in their Kodachrome slides. No, wait, they spent two years painstakingly recreated the Kodachrome development process and chemicals. I APPROVE OF THIS STUBBORNNESS / FOOLISHNESS. I mean, we went to the Moon because it is not easy. https://petapixel.com/2020/09/15/vsco-went-full-macgyver-to-create-an-authentic-kodachome-film-simulation -- "Some People Drive, We Are Driven" https://richardman.photo
