Went to Maui over Christmas ... took Provia 100F and Velvia.   The Provia's
nice (shot Haleakala sunrise bike trip down the volcano), the Velvia is
killer: beautiful water/sky/vegetation, with much better contrast.   Would
have shot the whole vaca with Velvia if I had it to do over again.   Come to
think of it though, I really didn't get many shots of people, including my
family ;-).

The Provia F would be better for the people shots, but I found exactly the same thing with Velvia in Hawaii.

In the midwest in summer, Provia F rules. Darn good all-purpose film for flower macros, people, landscape too. Horses for courses. No film is perfect.
