Skin tones on a hazy day: phantom like!
Hello to everybody!
I wanted to discuss a particular condition I dealt with yesterday. It was a hazy and sunny day, time was about 5.00 PM (took my shoots partly in the sun, partly in the shade, in a park). All the pictures show good color balance, but very pale skin tones. For sure the diffused light helped in avoiding shadows on faces, but color saturation is a bit low and skin remains "whiteish" even raising it. Changing the color balance gives acceptable skin tones, but returns a hue on anything else (almost brown hair on fair people). I don't uderstand why the skin tones are so strange coimpared to the rest. What can I do to avoid this the next time? I'm quite sure a CPL would have helped, but I forgot it at home, so I couldn't try.
Thank you in advance for your contributions!
