Train Station - 2 color temps.

[Radtech1]

This was taken in the Stuttgart Train station. One thing that I am very proud of is that it was HAND HELD at 0.7 seconds - God Bless IS Technology. BUT - the obvious problem is the 2 vastly different color temps. Outside it was cloudy, grey, and overcast - about 6000k I imagine. Inside the use mercury vapor lights - 2000k tops.

Keep it as is? Try to edit witout looking TOO obvious? Anyone know of anything that could have been done when taking the shot?

Did you shoot in raw?

If yes, make two pictures with two color temps (whitebalance) and fit them together...

I like the shot as is. The cool background of the outside (cyan/blue cast) complements the warm tones of the interior.

If you work in Photoshop, you could overlay the image with a duplicate layer and remove the yellow cast. There are plenty of neutral whites within the station interior to work with. Then adjust the layer opacity of the color corrected layer until you like the result. I tried it and found that an opacity of about 50% seemed right - a less obvious yellow cast but still quite warm.

I don't see a problem with this photo as it is.

I forgot to mention : I like the picture as it is, I don't think you need to change something.

was only an answer to your question how to handle perhaps the two different color temperatures...
