No, not the famous Canadian trio of Geddy Lee, Neil Peart & Alex Lifeson (although they are awesome !). Rushing is the bane of the amateur photographer ! In this day of digital photography, it is way too easy to hurry and not think about setting up your shot.
For example, look at these two photos:
This one has the white balance set for a sunny afternoon, about 5000 degrees Kelvin. See how yellow it looks ? I look like I have jaundice or something !
This photo has had the white balance corrected to indoor, flourescent lighting, about 3200 degrees Kelvin. Notice how it looks a quite a bit lighter, and more natural ?
In fact, both photos were taken with flash & a 1/2 Green gel to compensate for the lighting. But because I had the white balance set up wrong - because I was rushing - all the photos were like this. Thanks goodness it was an easy thing to correct in post-processing !
Note to self - Stop. Check EVERY setting before looking through the lens...
