neil in orange and blue *

My son wore this shirt today and I said, "perfect!" Floating before him is a blue balloon in the shape of a star.

Lonnit, the shirt is definetly orange and (dark) blue. I think my C1 Rebel conversion did not add enough red or blue (was about rgb 234/71/2). I reprocessed this file and the white balance is more accurate I think, with the orange being closer to rgb 255/100/0 (which is close to a perfect orange on a computer screen). Thanks for the observation-- I've seen the shirt so many times that my eyes just naturally saw, 'orange'. I think you may have been seeing a more reddish orange on your monitor. How does this look now?

Is it my monitor or is the shirt red? To be "complementary" it should be orange (or the chair should be green if the shirt is red, and the shirt is way closer to orange than the chair is to green! LOL!). Great shot! ~ Lonnit
