Moderate use of color? You can't be talking about me.
My Denver Skyline is gloriously, uproariously colorful, but that's what I like about the hour after sunset. The ancient pine is not nearly so crazy, but using velvia did give me somewhat extra saturation compared with the reality of nature.
Maybe I'll mature with more experience, but at the moment, the saturation and contrast of velvia is the main thing keeping me from using my DSLR.
This next picture is stitched from 4 P645N shots, probably using my 75mm lens, again on Velvia. Again the saturation makes the Fall grasses golden-brown to contrast with the purple mountains majesty. Location: Kenosha Pass, 50 mi SW of Denver. Scanning is about 3,000 dpi, I think, and the final landscape aspect ratio is 16x30 inches (40x76 cm) at 300 dpi.
