[QUOTE="Kodiak, post: 180394, member: 15426"] • Hello "mamaduchess", White balance is a parameter that is easy to control from the camera as a first step! [B]Your first picture:[/B] …am I right to assume that there are two light sources in that scene? I see a daylight source from the windows in the background and a flash on your daughter. Your flash (or mine), and that is the horror of it, always gives you the same colour temperature. A feature that is nice when one produces documents but light has changing moods… not your flash! As in this first picture, the whole discomfort comes from the [B]two moods[/B] that are somewhat conflicting. Your eye sees the colour moods and can not associate them as natural. The opposite for [B]the second picture:[/B] Technically, the colours are shifted. In a way, since there is only one light source, that is more pleasing because the mood of the light is, throughout the scene, constant and thus looking more natural. As mentioned before, it is very difficult, but not impossible, to tweak colour shifts on a same scene. So, you took the first photo during daytime with a flash and obtained that result. Had the picture been taken, say in the evening, the room would have a warmer mood then the subject. Again, with the same discomfort. Have a good day… [/QUOTE]
