Anyway, everyone go visit my super cool MT ring neighbor Witold Riedel, who fixed one of my "bathroom portraits" for me. He made the cheery smile one much brighter.

I'll tell ya, that shirt is much more saturated than the one I was wearing, but other than that the colors are pretty true to life. It's not as soft as the orginal, but it is prettier.

One day, I too will be a Photoshop master.

Hello, thank you so much for the kind words. I just had the feeling that the camera did not quite get the "white balance" right. It is a matter of calibration with digital cameras and it is a real pain in the neck with analogue ones. When shooting inside with regular film, the pictures come out yellowish and strange. There is this special film, called Tungsten Film which compensates for that. So I just tried to somehow take out this yellow overcast that is created by artificial light, that's all. : ) The reason why I doctored with only this second shot was the light behind you in the first picture. ONce there is direct light into the camera it is somehow more difficult for me to get the colors back on track... Happy to be your MT ring neighbor. : )
