Colour is a bugger: I have struggled for YEARS in the darkroom. One man's
balance is anothers disaster. I often went to bed happy and woke up
miserable as all the images I'd printed would look "cast" in the morning
light. Its the same with digital: here the capture one image looks warm to
me like afternoon light and the ACR is colder more middayish. Both are
real only on the monitor and may not reflect reality at all!!!
