My (admittedly very old) processing program has auto exposure, auto contrast and auto level buttons. The first two seem to be very helpful but the last one seems to slant a lot of images towards the blue end of the colour tones. The other version of this photo doesn't have the auto levels in action.
Can anybody possibly explain to me what this process actually does and why the blue effect seems to be favoured. Any feedback would be very gratefully received. Many thanks Rob
Nice photo, on my editor the blue is to do with white balance, if the program sees a photo that has blue tones (cool)it pushes it over to warm and if it sees warm tones it will push over to cool tones it can be adjusted manually too. Don’t know if that helps, it really depends on the editor.
Thanks everybody for your comments and suggestions. The white balance concept makes perfect sense as I tend to not worry about adjusting it too much (nearly always sitting on overcast). And it would explain why this happens to varying degrees in different photos. Thanks so very much for your ideas and explanations.. @rickster549@homeschoolmom@ludwigsdiana@wakelys@pusspup@sangwann@bkbinthecity@craftymeg
@craftymeg Hi Margaret - your explanation was so good - it explained everything that I've seen it do. Thanks for taking the time to explain. Cheers Rob
