More experimenting. This time with my relector sheets out on the lawn with plenty of natural light.

Maureen this is a really nice image, dont know if its my monitor but the strawberries look (almost) a magenta colour rather than red. I have had problems with the monitor on the new PC but have calibrated (or thought i had) it. I have adjusted the strawberries neare to what i am seeing as red. Tell me what you think???

Hyas Maureen - love the concept and composition of this shot - agree with Bev re your still life - making me jealous.. LOL

Like mentioned, there is the magenta cast- I too find this when photographing outside using natural light and reflectors - you could either change you WB settings or use Colour Balance in Photoshop etc....

Looking forward to seeing more, hun

Hiya Mark. Thanks for stopping to look and leave your lovely comment
Never thought about the color cast happening because of the natural light but I think you're right. Will have a go at using colour balance tomorrow. I have about 6 shots that need adjusting. Thanks for the advice much appreciated
