Need help with graduation


Recommended Posts

<p>Hi there,</p>

<p>I took graduation pictures last night at my son's 8th grade graduation. I have a D90 with a Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 lens. Normally this combination works great at low light conditions but for some reason, all of the pictures have a red hue around the eyes and mouth.</p>

<p>I use LR 3. Can someone help by teaching me how to fix this in LR (assuming that it can be fixed). I shoot using JPEGs only (no Raw). I have a lot of pictures that need adjustment so if you can help me learn what adjustments to make, I would greatly appreciate it.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>In Lightroom, if you go down to the HSL area (hue, saturation and luminance) in the development module and move the RED slider to the right (increase), the red hue will disappear -- yes, I know I just said increase, but it will remove that strange redness. I just tried it myself. Do this in the HUE section of HSL.</p>

<p>I opened it in Adobe Camera Raw through Bridge, and it looks like the problem is basically far too warm a color temperature. Could the temperature have been set wrong some how?</p>

<p>Here is is with the color temperature tuned way down and not much else altered.</p><div>00WhJ3-252855584.jpg.a184850fe6298ff80db3a5da104f2056.jpg</div>
