I have uses for both light yellow-green and relative deep green filters. Go out in brick-red Navajo sandstone Southwest desert country, for example, and use a red or orange filter to differentiate clouds from blue sky, and all that red rock and soil will come out looking weirdly paste-white. Common mistake. A deep green filter solves that dilemma : darkens blue sky as well as the reddish foreground rocks.
My biggest threaded filter is light yellow
B+W 122mm
Not cheap bought new years ago, it is up 10%
It is a slight mismatch as it should be 123mm unobtainium

A Light Yellow-Green like Wratten 11 or Hoya X0 will basically corrects the dip in green sensitivity of typical pan films and makes foliage look more natural and buoyant, much like you get with an Orthopan film like ACROS (not to be confused with full Orthopan, which is red blind). These are also useful for keeping pinkish light complexions from looking bleached out on pan film. And, because the filter factor is only around one stop or slightly more, they're nice when you need to handhold exposures, with a little stronger effect than a plain yellow.
