    You will have to play with the white balancing on the camera, given that your camera allows that. If not, you will have to adjust in Photoshop.

    If you use a DSLR then you can set your own white balance through the CSM menu, if not and you can capture as raw files, you can use adobe raw and change the colour tempreture. I have found that the normal colour settings on adobe can give you some bizzare results.

    I honestly like using the photo tools right here on 3Reef, you can find it right on the left hand side navigation menu. That's what I use for all my photos. PhotoShop is WAY to complex and I personally can not stand Adobe.
