Good rescue, Tom! That is usually very hard to do if you didn't shoot it in RAW. And I am soo impressed that you actually found a Rita who was a meter maid!!! And a very nice portrait as well! Good for you on all counts! ~Sharon

OK Fill-Flash Fans (aam1234 & Rod),
It was cloudy, about to rain, when I took the pic. Later found I hadn't changed the WB after shooting indoor under fluorescent tubes. I was happily surprised I was able to rescue anything from the green/blue haze! Thanks iPhoto5!

Very good Tom another well thought out shot, you must be really brainy:-) Fill flash may have worked well here as long as it didn't overexpose the meter. Good work Tom & tell Rita I think she's loverly too:-)

I almost missed the meter maid part as I was focused on the name tag. Most clever. -COAmature

Wish you used a fill flash to brighten this lovely.
