This treatment leans a little green.. is it TOO green?
(also, I'm planning on bumping the exposure maybe a 1/3rd stop.. ya/nay?)

Thanks;

I don't see a green cast on my monitor. A little brighter may help. Can you try lifting the shadows a little? The eyes of the third person on the left look shaded.

Nice Thanks. Yeah I'll up the exposure a bit and maybe even paint in some exposure adjustments around the faces as needed.

There is a lot of green in the pic, but I don't think it is a green cast. The white shirts look very well balanced.

Thanks again everyone. I've delivered after bumping the exposure a bit.

I think that it looks a bit off, how did you set the white balance? Did you shoot a color card or do it in post? I think that is a situation that would have benefited from a little fill flash.

No, I just used the middle white shirt for white balance..

At the time, I felt that using lighting would have slowed me down too much. (I'm normally working on my own) Maybe in hindsight I could have made it work tho. I should plan for this next time, anyway.
