What color are the ones from Calumet?

I think the blue would be fore the western hemisphere and the warm for
the eastern Yea that's the ticket. Did ya know white is evil over there
and BLACK is good! (really I think)
Just shows to go ya the grass is always amberer!

Why would you color it? I thought i knew everything! :)
Do the shadows need to go up or down?
I like those John Ford movies. Filters R us. John Wayne rides in with
white lips but the skies are great. The Cirro-cumulus are rumbling with
the Cumulo-stratus. Look at the detail. And the  Fisher Towers, Utah. In
the bottom of the background.
Bokeh? Forgedaboudit!

But then he jumps off his horse and his lips are black in close-up. Must
have switched to ortho. Tricky lighting. Can't trust those meters.
