Exercise : Colour cast and White Blance





COLOUR CAST AND WHITE BALANCE 


Our eyes conveniently adapt to changes in light colour.  There are changes between sunlight and tungsten but our brain and eyes process them s we see them as neutral.  The cameras lens however is literal.  It records the differences in colour.  For this reason the camera needs to be set to an appropriate colour balance.

Find the following outdoor situations, each of which has a different colour temperature.
