Ellie Posted July 13, 2015 Share #5766 Posted July 13, 2015 One more in color, I usually don't change anything but this one is auto white balance in LR. The sky is now lighter and overall a bit more yellow. It was a bright day and most of the shots were around f/11 1/750s. Welcome, dear visitor!

philipus Posted July 13, 2015 Share #5770 Posted July 13, 2015 I can agonise over colour balance forever. And when I go back to a photo I'm rarely happy with the choices I made earlier.

Ellie Posted July 14, 2015 Share #5773 Posted July 14, 2015 Thanks for all opinions on the wb! One more in color, when going back on the highway there were really unique cloud formations. White clouds on top with dark clouds below (they are visible at the horizon in this photo). They looked like the alps from Henry's photos. Welcome, dear visitor!

philipus Posted July 14, 2015 Share #5774 Posted July 14, 2015 I really like this one. The darker clouds at the horizon add depth and drama to the photo. I am wondering if the colour balance isn't slightly off though. Granted I'm looking at it on my office Windows machine. I had a stab at it (which I hope was OK) in Photoforge2 on my telephone (which, together with my general lack of skills will no doubt explain any weird results, particularly as I can only see them on the Windows computer). I tried to remove the red/magenta cast in the highlights (mainly the clouds) while preserving a slightly warm tone in the midtones (this is the tricky part). It's difficult and more precise adjustments can certainly be done per channel (I only used the colour balance function which is pretty much the same as the one in Photoshop). We'll be spending three weeks in Sweden at the end of the summer. I hope we'll have days like in the photos you've posted. Welcome, dear visitor!

It's strange because your version looks like in my LR. Zooming in on the clouds and move the red/magenta slider doesn't affect the color - there's no magenta in the clouds! I wonder where this color is added? LR export or the forum? Here's the original scanned file.

Doc Henry Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share #5778 Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) I just finish to scan wedding pictures on Coolscan 5000 with my 3 rolls of Kodak Portra. I would like to have your opinion about these 2 pictures inside the church. Light is yellow and sometimes difficult to shoot because bad light condition. I have 2 flash Leica and Metz but I don't like to use them because as I said to Philip, I like "nature" photos and for another reason not disturbing the ceremony. In addition, people keep natural physionomy and don't know I shoot them Here are 2 pictures : white balance (WB) corrected and not corrected Which you prefer ?

philipus Posted July 14, 2015 Share #5780 Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) That is very interesting Ellie. I don't know Lightroom but in Photoshop one can adjust colour balance for highlights, midtones and shadows. The clouds should be the highlights. Could it be that the slider is for the midtones or shadows? Just an idea. Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it. It's strange because your version looks like in my LR. Zooming in on the clouds and move the red/magenta slider doesn't affect the color - there's no magenta in the clouds! I wonder where this color is added? LR export or the forum? Here's the original scanned file. I hope you'll have some nice summer days in Sweden On my (bad) office screen the first one looks cool (with blue and slight green tint) and the second one looks too yellow (but more natural). I'll have a look again when I'm at home. Indoors shooting with light sources of different colour temperature is, to be blunt, hell. I remember one photographer who recommended that for natural photography indoors the best is to eliminate all but one of the light sources. So for instance when shooting (flash-less) portraits in a room lit by both light from the windows and from lamps one is better off to close the curtains to prevent bizarre results which are difficult to correct in post (and use a reflector or two to control the light). But there are of course practical limits to how possible it is to do this, for instance in a church. I just finish to scan wedding pictures on Coolscan 5000 with my 3 rolls of Kodak Portra.
