White Balance Landscapes with “Cooling” Patches

While some landscapes can benefit from a warmer appearance, others would benefit from lush green tones. The reddish cooling patches on ColorChecker Passport are designed specifically to enhance the cool greens in landscape photos. Click on each of the patches to preview the adjustment, and select the patch that gives you the best look. Save the setting and apply it to other landscape images that were shot under that lighting.

Tip: You may not want to use the White Balance or Creative Enhancement targets in an image where the color cast is important to the overall image, like photo of a setting sun. To retain your desired cast, set the camera to its daylight setting and do not white balance.
