It's actually alot yellow... I fixed it, but you don't have "Image editing ok" on so I won't post it unless you say it's ok.

Go ahead WG, I need to change my profile..

And it does look yellow? Man I need to fix my monitor.

Looks good. What exactly did you do?

I'm still having problems.

One will come out with a white background and the next will come up with a slightly yellow tint. Is it catching the light cycle?

Does this have a yellow tint to it?

Oh, and ignore the dust and his hand. These shots are just practice.

Oh, cowboy, what did you do for the close up shots? I have gear to do semi-macro and macro, but I don't have a small tripod. Mine is built for bigger things.

No yellow. WB looks good. Looks like you need more exposure or bump it up during post process, but it looks good as far as wb/color goes.

All in that last post were done with my 5D+100mm macro. All were handheld with me laying on the ground and getting close to the objects. No need for tripod depending on ISO and getting decent shutterspeed.

Thanks. I really wish I had a spare American flag laying around that I could have used as the backdrop.

It really helps bring out the colors. I think the older cotton flags look better than the new nylon ones.
