Am never quite sure why we are so sniffy about wedding photography. I
foolishly promised my niece that I would shoot the day as her wedding
present. Never, ever again! Nerve racking, technicaly difficult with
incredible mixes of light and problems of lighting huge dark church with no
time. Organising groups is political nightmare and every group has at least
one "blinker".

And on top of all this one has to get the bride looking good with her
brilliant white dress alongside the dark suited groom - aaargh!

Still shot it digitally and all is fine except for observation of bride's
mother who, clearly having spent hours agonising over the brides-maids'
dresses notices such minor details, acidily commented "why do they keep
changing colour".

Ah woe is me! All daylight shots are perfect with delicate salmon pink
dresses but wherever flash becoms a major part of the light source, they go
a wierd orange. Have checked all the files and there is no other untoward
colour shift so clearly I have suffered what I think is called
"photo-fluoresence".

As my background is a rather purist photo-journalistic am not sure I approve
of all these cosmetic propaganda fixes so have never learnt them but faced
with potential family feud need to abandon my principles and ask for help.

Please, can somebody please advise me how I can selectively transfer the
correct colour from one picture to another.

Many thanks for any assistance you can give me.
