If you don\'t mind sharing, how do you usually do this in LR? I haven\'t properly explored the color setting from within the LR3 adjustment brush panel.


It\'s pretty straightforward, but also not very sophisticaded. I used it to paint over areas that had a blue cast and chose a yellow color with a certain saturation. You may want to use a fairly high saturation to start with, so that you when you paint lightly there is still a noticeable effect. When you have to paint to 100% opacity and see that you the cast isn\'t removed sufficiently yet in some places, you can\'t just raise the saturation because the effect will become too much in the areas where it was actually sufficient already (or you\'ll have to start erasing in those areas, which is a bit annoying).

I needed this for some portraits that were done in incandescent lighting mixed with some window light, which gave a blue cast to one side of the persons\' faces/hair.

I\'m sure there are better ways of dealing with this in photoshop, but I\'m unfortunately too inexperienced with selective color editing.
