Lol I remember the only way this worked was we were already near the location and we would ask the local where was blah blah and they were like “oh you mean unpronouncible word it’s right over there take a left”

I'm sure that must have been a game changer for the military when they were able to take a picture, have the film shipped through the supply chain to HQ to be developed, have the developed picture shipped back to the front line, so they can see the sniper hiding next to that bush and shoot him before they can shoot you. ;-)

I find the red / pink / salmon 🍣 hued snow captivating and am surprised no one has discussed that!

I’d assume the red is some sort of algae or photosynthetic bacteria? 🦠🩸

Is this normally observed in this area?

Edit: just infrared, darn I need to skim better. Wish it was red algae! 😂

Interesting take, I mentioned in other comments this was shot on Kodak Aerochrome false color infrared surveillance film. It was used for reconnaissance in the military it turns greens into reds to help detect enemy positions

So if it’s infrared film all that indicates a lot of melty bits right?

Do you know if this is standard, or would this be showing the increased extent of melt due to climate change impact? 🤔🫠🌎

All the red is green grass, the grass reflects IR. What I may be assuming you see as melty bits are various rock formation that look rounded over from erosion. There is no snow present when I took this photo just late Autumn grasses and moss.

I did it myself at home using the standard E6 kits from the Film Photography Project. The current aerochrome from Dean that you see in black tubes on eBay is safe for C41 (color negative) or E6 (reversal). There were older versions of Aerochrome that I believed used C22 chemicals and those are not available any more.

it's roughly "fya thrar glyu fur" which is probably still not totally correct, but that's what I can remember from my trip with a local trying to teach me (and getting a good laugh out of it from my effort)

I see!

Thanks for explaining, guess it was my own cultural biases & preconceptions based on incomplete knowledge that led me to assume all that lush vegetation 🌾 was snow ❄️. Sorry! 😬
