I hate to be pushed to B&W when I want color (though my usual preference is B&W). I see that you\'ve shot these at ISO 800. For low light I shoot at ISO 640 (at the lowest shutter speed I can live with) and push in LR — I sure you\'re aware of this technique. The issue then, in mixed lighting particularly, is to adjust the WB to what you want: my feeling is that it\'s best not to neutralize complete, but to leave some of the color cast of the predominant light source, even if it\'s tungsten. Sometimes it can be quite an effort in the post-processing. BTW, I love the colors of the shot you left in color — and in the middle picture in the post with three portraits.
Hey, the new song is \"don\'t take my M9 away — I don\'t get no satisfaction with Kodachrome\".
