White Balance/Contact sheets Experimentation

contactsheet-001

Here I have created a contact sheet. A contact sheet is a piece of photographic paper where the photos you have taken are displayed and dated. These photos allow you to see each photo clearly, this allows you to select the best ones easily. I also have taken the same photo but put a  different white balance setting on them each time.

This is the Kelvin scale. The Kelvin scale is a scale that measures temperature. This is used a lot in white balance. When light is exposed to harsh white light it is seen as blue where as if it exposed to indoor light that is as harsh it is seen as orange going onto red.  The Kelvin scale puts these things in a range that can be measured.
