Mine, naturally...

Had to adjust the exposure of this thing so as not to blow out the white. You have to imagine a cloudless sky at 2,500' with the blazing sun at a low, winter angle. The extra warmth comes from the exposure and that light temperature.

Not sure about Dan's Portra sky color as I had this film (Portra 160 NC) in the M7 for the 2nd steam shot. That color was dead-accurate as it was ~ 15:30 and sunset was ~ 16:45 LMT. Maybe it's the difference in the Agfa scanner vs. whatever his lab used, but I can tell you that the proof prints Dan had from that lab were the best I have ever seen and far better than what you see on the screen here..., naturally. Dan does a mean print job himself, BTW, with whatever printer he has in the office, out to 20" x 30"!!!
