Tony,

Would I be correct in suggesting that these have been shot using auto wb? If so, may I ask why? When you're using studio lights, you have everything under your control - the wb, the lights' intensity .... you should be shooting manual wb and exposure, and thus taking control of the situation, and reducing your PP workload into the bargain.

As Alan has pointed out, there are wb issues in these images - each of them is different. And none of them seem to be correct, although I do think the first is probably the closest to what the reality might be.

While the concept in the third is good, there is a mark on the foam that is distracting, and considering the proposed usage for these images, probably not a desirable artifact.

Thanks Gary & Alan
I think I had the wb on flash and was in manual mode still learning this flash setup
You are right the first is the closest and her mother & sue love it. I do'not like the wb of it
I like the second one and yes it does have hot spots which I have toned down abit
The third is a steel sculpture which I had her stand behind and you are right about the rust spot
I have only used this setup twice first to take shot at xmas of the family who came down from outback Qld and were not that good.
With this set it was much better from the first set.
