The cooling filter probably yields a result that's closer to the original, but I like the golden sand and sunny feeling that the warm filter produces. Of course that's highly subjective. You could also just pull back the green a bit in curves. I didn't try that, but I would guess that it would also take you where you want to go.

Hi Paul,
Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't like the result with the warming
filter, but the result with the #80 or #82 Cooling filter seemed to do the
trick.

Hi Shel, In PSCS go to Image/Adjustments/Photo Filter. Then select Warming Filter 85 and dial it down to about 28%. Nice shot by the way. Lots of fun. Paul On Apr 26, 2005, at 10:05 PM, Shel Belinkoff wrote:
I spent a few minutes with these kids, got quite a few shots, and liked
this one the best.
However, even though the color of the sand is pretty close to what it really is on that section of the beach, it seems to have too much green in it and perhaps detracts a bit from the photo. Any suggestions for making the sand a little more neutral? I used to know how to do that, but in my dotage have forgotten. Seems like I've forgotten the URL in the first post, too, so here it is:

Comments welcome. Time for my Pablum.
