I thought this was neutral but looking back on it see that it has a magenta cast to it.


Here I removed the magenta cast and made the whites neutral. Looking at it on the monitor it looks like it has a green cast but looking at the numbers shows that the whites are neutral.

I had tons of trouble trying to get the color balance right in these images. I'm still not happy with the way they all look together. They were shot in low light, with weird artificial lighting and at 1600 ISO. I watched a bunch of Lynda color tutorials to try and figure these out but most of them depend on blacks, whites and gray tones for neutralizing images and most of these don't have neutrals to begin with.
