Fun

This picture was really a challenge because if I had the room white balance correct, the monitor WB was all off, so I made a custom WB for the monitor, took the picture, processed it once in Adobe Camera Raw, and then adjusted the room color by putting the image through Adobe Camera Raw a second time using the eyedropper on the white cabinets. Of course after doing that the monitor looked terrible. I pasted the image processed for better room color over the one with the good monitor color, adding a layer mask and painted through the better monitor color. The room color really isn't what it looks like in here because the fluorescents are quite yellow. They were better when they were new ten years ago! I noticed one is starting to go, so I'll replace them soon.

Excellent image, and when you possess such PP skills it is indeed fun. For me, it is still learning...

Now that is clever Isabel...definitely my version of fun! I like your set up, I wish I could have my tv by the computer.
