We here on Kauai having just a miserable time in the sun, surf, mai tais and, oh yeah, photographing waterfalls in rainforest canyons. It’s just an awful job, but hey, someone has gotta do it. One of the concepts we work on here at DLWS is understanding what the eye sees, what the camera sees and captures and then melding these two into what you, the viewer of the images sees and is taken by. Color Cast is an important lesson. This photo here of ‘Opeakea Falls is a good example of this. Here you see before the color cast has been removed.

This is the photo after the cast is removed. You might be saying it’s a subtle thing, it is and subtlies when added up make for big drama and then the brass ring you need to grab as you close the digital darkroom.
