>From what you said, I guess the light temperature is inconsistent on the
whole picture, as you have different dominant colors all over the scene.
You can make no miracle, here: either you choose the white balance that
suits you, either you go for a black and white picture.
A more complicate alternative would be to apply different white balances on
different parts of the picture (using Gimp for example, as I don't think DT
is yet able to apply several different white balances) but you'll probably
loose what made the special atmosphere of the picture.
