Is everyone on this site color blind? Tell the truth to the OP. Op, your photos are severely off in color to the magenta and red.


Thanks for taking the time to comment. Just for general information these photos were taken at 9pm with all different light sources. Please feel free to make any corrections and re post on this thread. I am just an hobbyist having fun and trying to up my skill level. Thank you again saying hello from Pittsburgh.

The last is a unique perspective and subject that is very eye-catching and interesting!

The next to last is a super composition with the lines and glow drawing us into the heart of the city.

The middle is another engaging image, though might need to be straightened just a degree (listing to the left?). The reflected light on the building and its sharp geometry are a cool (warm ) counterpoint to the soft sunset colored clouds.

For me, composition, creativity and emotion will always trump "sharp at 100%" and a bit of digital noise.

Hello Linda thank you very much for taking the time to comment and your insight the only possible way to improve is with the help of others that view my photos and make suggestions just a hobbyist trying hard in Pittsburgh. Have a wonderful weekend go BUCS

Your work has always been special Joe, way back to when you posted one of the most memorable photos on the
forum. This set is no exception to your special and unique view. Truly, the very first one gave me a bit of a shock
in its heavy leaning on the magenta tone, but it's not always easy to see that in these long summer days when the
light changes, the light also in the space where you transfer to computer and begin to view your captures. Thank
you for showing a very special set of views from Pittsburgh.

Thank you jenny for looking and taking the time to comment. I was using the street lights to set white balance using the eye dropper tool they are coming in around
252 is this method ok to use? I do see the color cast in these photos but i thought it was the mixed light source. Any advise on these photos or for future references you can provide would be helpful. I keep an open mind when people are willing to devote there time and expertise. Thank you very much saying hello from Pittsburgh.

Oh those street lights will throw us for a loop Joe. You note what people say, it's so true that our minds compensate for what
we see in a short time. If you are outside and enter a place with fluorescent lights you initially notice a color shift, but you adjust
to it very shortly. I see some lights on a building that seem to be bluish, the shadows on snow seem to be an ugly brown, and it
is so far from natural there is no compensation going on at all. Mixed light is the worst to deal with, just try to avoid it or it's a
post processing job. As for remedies to all this, don't know what WB you used on that magenta-tinted pic. or what color temp
the light was. Best advice I think to anyone is to experiment as there is more than one sort of artificial light out there. You
have several ways to set a WB including custom settings.
