Photographer notes

I've been studying lots of old Kodachrome photos lately and thought I would try my hand at capturing some of that feel here. There are a lot of variations on the Kodachrome look but one that I like is the abundance of blue midtones with saturation heavier in the blues and reds. The typical exposure strategy was to protect the highlights which I tried to emulate here as well. I know there are plugins that help with this but I thought I'd try it by hand to understand the look better.
