If I didn't know that they were both on the same film, I'd suspect
on first glance that the C35 shots were done with a Kodak film.
That redishness shows up now that you mention it.

I was looking at the brightness of the clouds when brightening the image.

It was an early-afternoon sun, so there wasn't any red in it -- such as from
a sunset. The lack of reds in the Pentax makes it visually better, as you say.
But the Lordomat shots look more realistic in the buildings.
