Skin tones & Whitebalance practice......

[NicolaB]

How are the skin tones and whitebalance?

I used a Grey Kard, but I notice as I move the dropper around it, the colour changes. Surely this shouldn't happen - grrrrrr.

I have changed from Portrait to Faithful as I was getting a red hue with all my images. I think this has cracked it?

Also - are the eyes over cooked?

Nicola,

I can't really answer your questions but what looks like a mosquito bite on the girl's right arm really distracts me. That I would remove. Probably nitty gritty.

/p

Unfortunately it is a scar. It is part of her so I will leave it. I agree if it were a bite I would remove it. :-)

[NicolaB]

Anyone? I have been told she could do with warming up, but I would like other opinions

It looks a bit underexposed to me, as well as a tad cool. Cute though! Hard to tell if the eyes are overdone viewing only the smaller size.

Thanks Susan - is this any closer? I thought the Grey Kard would sort me out - grrrrrr.
