Just asking how the terrain and crops have altered since 1940.We now grow rape seed which is not an old crop here,infact filming the film BoB in 1969 was plagued by crops and roads that were not around in the 1940's.
There was more countryside,we are now over populated,less roads and built up areas then and don't forget they were digging to feed the country.
You need to compare to historically correct crops,fields [which will affect the colours] and also weather [was it wet or dry,once again colours] or just the light from the sky.
That Autumnal shot of Surrey is not really an average view,blues too blue,reds and oranges also too powerful.
Don't forget 1940's Britain was smoky and grimy in places ,coal fired industries ,steam railways etc.
