    I just took hundreds of pictures today and it seems that one of the lights
    was going and all the pictures have a very hard to adjust for color cast.

    Take a look... Can anyone help?

    Holy crap! I'm gonna have to download that to view it!

    Ahh, got it!

    Hmm, are you sure that's not a duff Game Boy? Looks like a cracked LCD! :lol:

    Damn, that's a dilly of a pickle! How did you have your lights set up? You shouldn't get shadowing like that.

    You'd have to area select and adjust the curves - really difficult. Can't say I know a plugin that would do it. Considering the hassle involved, the sad truth of the matter is that it'd probably be less time-consuming to reshoot :-(

    Agree with retro. If you can shoot the pictures again it probably the quickest way to go.
    I'm not familiar with Photoshop but in Photo-Paint it took me about 5 minutes to get the results in the pic below.

    I applied a basic processing, this one can be used to get similar results with the other pics you took with minimum adjustments.
    However, if you want better results you should use a more advanced processing, which would take a lot more time as you should have to customize the effects for each pic in order to get nice results.

    Original looks just fine to me as well. Second picture is excessively blue. Maybe your monitor is fuxxored?

    In my CRT monitor looked great and the original looked extremely yellow, now that I see it in a notebook screen I notice it's way too blue. I'll have to adjust my monitor color balance when I come back from vacations...

    I just noticed that some apps I use that are supposed to have white backgrounds look off white.

    I'm going to have to calibrate then re-evaluate.

    Have you got another image of a different item from your "dodgy" batch that we can compare with?
