That looks all pale and washed out on my I.mac and I.pad graham , each to there own I suppose , it s only a hobby , what I can't understand and with no disrespects IF I was that far out on colour balance then surely someone else who views my photos would have picked up on it on Flickr , to my knowledge your the only one that has raised a doubt and that's out of over 7million photo views on Flickr

I have worked as an advertising photographer for many years and if I did not know how to get colour balance spot on I would have no clients! My Lacie 324 pro monitor is profiled to give perfect colour balance so your Mac must be way out and needs sorting. That Nuthatch photo was in the RPS Exhibition so I can tell you the judges there are very fussy about colour: QED Your Nikon if set correctly will give spot on colour every time and over the years with many Nikon Pro DSLRs I have never had to correct colur balance in post production. You can see what others do on this forum, plenty of good colour balance from 95% of members! Please get it right or you will be laughed at your photography is good and needs simple corrected colour not hard to do.

Jeff if you look at your Greenshanks pixs I can tell you that colour is spot on. Sorry to go on about this but the Nuthatch pixs are way out and all I am trying to do is offer you help.

I appreciate that graham , all I can say is they must be better fed up here ..![]() as a matter of interest graham I have done the another shot from the same set , which apart from cropping to the same size is TOTALLY UN-EDITED , yes there is a slight difference but no where near as extreme as your version of one , btw if it makes any difference mine were shot in full direct sunlight .. all I do is enhance slightly to bring out details . but certainly not enough to get laughed at ![]() and below edited version ![]()

Of course lighting has a lot to do with it as well. That fledgling photo was no doubt taken in Spring lighting? This is a d500 photo (one of my first attempts!) ....jpeg... straight out of the camera in low afternoon winter light. No post capture adjustments whatsoever. ![]()

super shots iain , looking at both erics , iains and mine and comparing them their seems to be very little if any difference in colours ..so once again over to you graham .. I will add that initially my pics were a touch over saturated but I think I have tamed the beast to the point of I'm happy with the results .. and time will tell ![]()

Eric and Ians are spot on. This was the poor tatty worn out mum feeding the young 1/2 hr before they fledged. Attachment: Nuthatch0567S.jpg (Downloaded 117 times)
