Was this image edited? It's very cool/cyan, which I usually don't see in Kodak Gold

@gerryflap I manually invert the negatives with Darktable and adjust to achieve a natural color balance. Unfortunately for me I'm not very good at it, and oftentimes I go back to images and adjust and realize "wow that was incredibly blue this whole time." This very well could be one of those cases

Ah that makes sense. I tried that once as well and it was indeed quite hard to get right

@gerryflap So I actually just figured out my issue. A lot of my photos have a sort of cast over them. I used rgb curve to set the black point (?) in darktable

Oh this looks better yeah. I know your pain with Darktable. I'm still trying to find out how to use it (and RawTherapee) as well

Maybe a tad aggressive in removing the orange tint of the negative.
