Reala Āta Dice Sales offers a travel and landscape Film Simulation recipe inspired by the tranquil quality of those quiet moments in nature New Zealand-based photographer Dice Sales provides a Film Simulation recipe built around softness and calm light that’s perfect for autumnal atmospheres as golden hour draws in. “The name comes from the Māori word ‘āta’, meaning gently and slowly,” Dice explains. “That meaning fits this recipe perfectly. It was designed for quiet moments, early starts and fading light at the end of the day. “The base Film Simulation is REALA ACE, which I find ideal for landscapes and everyday scenes. It offers rich, filmic tones without feeling heavy or oversaturated. Greens stay natural, shadows lean slightly cool and highlights roll off smoothly, even when working in difficult light. This makes it a strong all-round choice for travel and landscape photography.” Instagram: @dicesales
