As some of you may be aware, I put off white balance adjustment until I do post-processing — quite some time later. It is then, that I get to play the, "Which color was this originally?"-game. Sometimes I actually remember what the color of the light in the room was, but when I tweek the balance for that, the results look terrible. So in those situations I just tweek the knobs until things look good.
There are technical reasons for all of this, mostly with my camera expecting a black-body radiation curve, and getting monochromatic light instead. So, I get an overexposed red channel, and a way-way underexposed blue channel, or vice versa. (Neither of which is actually the original colors. And there are ways to work around this while shooting, but I haven't been doing it because it's labor intensive. (More precisely, I'd have to manually adjust camera settings, every time I change position. I've programmed my camera to do most of what I do automatically now, but this situations is a bit beyond my poor camera's ken.))

Baycon 2008 Here's something more recent for a change. There is also a good example of composition in here. I was a little bit too far away when I saw the light-saber guy, and I couldn't get any closer at the time, so I just shot it from where I was, and I've cropped the photo down in two different ways, so you can see the difference that composition makes. (This is also one of the advantages of having a 12Mpixel camera.) D300, photo, May 2008, Baycon, Sci-FI, convention, Santa Clara, California Julia Wolf Julia Wolf image/jpeg 2008 ( Read more... )
