No connection whatsoever to Giovanni di Nicolao Arnolfini, however, here it is, via my Mamiya RB67 Pro. S, with the 90mm 3.8 Mamiya / Mamiya-Sekor 90mm f/3.8 lens, and my Polaroid back, shooting the FujiFilm Instant, and scanned via my Epson V500. I have used LR5 to enable a better view, because, I think it needed it!
From the Garapatta coast, south of Carmel,CA.
Toyo 45A, 90mm
4x5 Velvia 50 quickload
f64, @16 s,
Probably under exposed a 1/2 stop as I was chasing the light going away & reciprocity
Probably some color shift too (no filter).
Reworked/saved it in P/S
I'll chalk this one up to learning and plan it better.
Not much room for back up exposures as light was fading quickly.
Okay, my next steep toward using film, and doing so correctly, involved purchasing an old school light meter, the Gossen Sixtar Exposure Meter, however, i'm still trying to figure out how to read it!!

I would recommend the Gossen Luna Pro SBC, its kind of bigger than I thought when I first got it but reading it a breeeeeeeeze.

I wish I could, but, budget woes, and the tax man cameth, so, all I could afford, was this one! I found some online PDF manuals for it via that useful guy, ORPHAN CAMERAS.COM

Sweeeet, was just there for Thanksgiving (and again last week). I wouldn't worry too much about reciprocity failure - Photoshop was created to solve color channel issues and if anything, you'll get more magenta which makes Pacific sunsets even better!
Here are a few more.
The first is an attempt to tame the magenta in the prior image
This next one was taken about 10 min earlier, with 2004 provia. Exposure was 8-10 sec.
If I'm to believe the reciprocity charts, Astia & Provia are good til about 30sec.
This one doesn't appear to me to have color cast issues.
Please tell me if you see any
