My monitor is not calibrated, but yeah, bring down the red or lower the warmth. #1 seems worse than the other 2.

Thanks John, I think I need to set a custom white balance because it seems as though my camera has a red bias to it. It doesn't happen with every pic but it happens alot. hmmmm.

I'm gonna try a quick edit and see what happens......I don't have a calibrated monitor either.

Looks better, but what do I know... I was cheering for the Steelers over the Browns.

LOL, tonight you came into the game as the "defending superbowl champs" and you left Cleveland as the....."former superbowl champs". What a sweet victory, knocking the Steelers out of the playoffs ! WOOT !

I suck at this post processing thing. I'd hate to see how bad I would hack up a photo if I had photshop.

Probably go with something in the middle.. the first too "warm" and the "how about now" too "cool" maybe?

Thanks lebshiff21 and DHMN.....I just can't seem to get the hang of PP, this sucks. Does anyone know of any good DPP vids or books ?

What about the shots themselves, besides the horrible PP job lol.......you guys like them ?

#2 is a good crop.. can't see #1.. says unavailable as it did this afternoon also.. #3 is probably good but might set off the alarm some people have against cutting off at the foot/joint but with the knee so high what can you do? the extra makes me want to go all Bill Walton on the guy.. 'don't jump to pass the ball!'
