Hi folks i need some help :-(

http://www.belgavastgoed.be/S80%20versus%20sealife%20dc600.png
The upper part of the pictures (lembeh, bun, shots made with Canon S80) are more colorfull then the lower part (PICT xxx, made with the sealife DC600).
S80 used the internal flash and the sealife the extern.
Both cameras were using the OW program.

I use Linux and Gimp on my pc.

How to correct the DC600 pics ?
Like :
PICT0061.jpg looks blue, but is actually a green nudibranche(PICT0063.JPG)

Raymond,

I am not a PhotoShop expert, but I tried working on the nudi shot...it is completely overexposed and blown out and for me at least it was beyond correction.

Check your camera's setting as some smaller digitals have color balance settings.

Sarah, you posted a link to a photoshop tip the other day, which basically talked about converting your shot to a b&W to use just the luminance info, and then use another layer almost like a red filter to restore the red. Could a similar thing be done here, but maybe just use a mask to select only the nudibranch?

Ron .... Oh, I'm FULL of good ideas ... :p
