[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 525045, member: 12496"] Your scene is illuminated by incandescent light, which is orange. So using camera White Balance setting of Incandescent will help a lot. That is pretty much the idea, match the WB setting to your scenes lighting. It is not often exact however, so better, if you have software with a white balance tool, just click the white snow, and the tool will take care of it, like this: [IMG]http://www.scantips.com/g2/dsc_3267b.jpg[/IMG] I also brightened about 2/3 stop, because predominately white things just simply tend to be undexposed by our meters. Metering 101. Or Auto WB can do some of the WB correction, maybe about half way, but Auto never is a very satisfactory plan. [/QUOTE]
