We are probably having a "tangential conversation". :-) I was referring to a traditional print. The enlarger has filters for the light source that affect the color balance of the light that reaches the negative.
My point is that traditionally a filtering mechanism is used either at image capture time or at print time to provide color correction for the rendered image. By suggesting a warming filter in Photoshop be used, I was merely suggesting that an analog of the traditional approach be used. I don't know the best way to something all the time, but I may know a way that works. :-) Tom C. >From: "Bob W" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List <[email protected]> >To: "'Pentax-Discuss Mail List'" <[email protected]> >Subject: RE: Color Cast Question >Date: Thu, 6 Jul 2006 21:36:32 +0100 > > > > > How would a color negative exhibiting a bluish cast be corrected >when > > printing???
