| | | Posted by freeside Romain: I suffer this problem quite frequently and tackle it several different ways. 1. In Lightroom, I use the color temperature paint brush / local adjustment, and very tediously paint in sections that I want cooler or warmer. I always set the Flow and Density to 100% so I don't get overlapping brush strokes. Then cool off or warm up the section. Depending on the effectiveness of "Auto Mask" I turn it on and off as needed while painting over different sections, edges, etc. 2. Use LR gradients with color temperature. 3. Split toning also can help. Cool off shadows and warm up highlights is my usual trick. Sometimes I do this on top of steps 1 & 2. 4. Selective color desaturation, such as greens to deal with those streetlights. 5. Google Nik ColorEfex Pro 4, Remove Colorcast module helps, as well as Neutralize Whites, or "Correct Colorcast" slider under Pro Contrast. Many times I combine all 5 of these in one process. Color temperature is the number one thing I work on in my photos. Cooling skies, while keeping the rest of the image warmer... I actually like the first process being so blue. Maybe desaturate purple a little and throw a warm gradient on the lower half of the photo? This photo lends itself perfectly for this approach since it is easily split horizontally. -free
