A friend of mine is bringing some pictures over to my place this afternoon. They are shots of a wedding reception that was held at a private home on the back deck/porch area. The 'roofing' material on the deck/porch was that green tinted corrigated material that you might see on a green house or something.

Needless to say, the sun filtering through that cast a greenish tint over all her subjects.

I'm thinking (before I see them) that I will just try and tinker some with the saturation levels on specific colors. Anyone ever dealt with this before and found a 'cure'?

Thanks

Maybe try using the eyedropper tool to select something white in the picture?

This should get you petty close..

If you have a chance; post a pic when you get them..

i agree with Tdragone, use eyedropper (levels or curves has it) and target something thats supposed to be white. then do blacks and grey. that should get u in the ballpark so u can try use hue/saturation to fine tune it.

yep, im in the same boat with tom too
it would have been a lot easier to have used a custom WB at the time of the shoot though wouldnt it? and i really hope there RAW :)
