When I went to Antarctica, I was recommended to take Sensia rather than
Ecktachrome, as ecktachrome had a magenta bias. Is this true? It's been 15
years since I've shot Ecktachrome. I used it for blues and jackaranda shots-
which it was very good at then.

According to this Velvia should be great. Does it pink out in snow?
