I shot very little color film in New Orleans a couple of weeks ago. There wasn't a lot of color images I was interested in but I couldn't not take this photo when I saw it.

For those of you not familiar with New Orleans, there's three colors that dominate the theme of NOLA, especially in relation to Mardi Gras:
To be transparent, the left fence was a little bit more blue than purple but I edited the hue in PS. I'm curious if I could do a bit of that in the darkroom using a selective color burn (a bit more cyan just in that area to make it more red, turning the blue fence purple?).
My first roll of Fujichrome Velvia 50 through a Zeiss Super Ikonta 530. 13 out of 16 images of 6 x 4.5 cm usable. I did the latter half of the film at the Manchester Day event, in Manchester, UK, on 29th July, 2023. A crowd event is not the easiest place to relearn one's Ikonta. I'm going to the Lake District, UK, soon so will try it on landscapes.
Zxzoomy,
All cameras have a learning curve, but your Ikonta is doing a good job for it’s age, and I don’t notice any light leaks. Your medium format slides would look great projected on a big screen.
