No Mac, No Cheese - Episode 16: Gelling your flash
Posted in no mac no cheese episode tutorials digital how-to photography flash gel color balance
By gelling your flash to match the color of the ambient light, you'll get much more natural looking images.
I used 2 gels in this scenario so I could fine tune the color. They were straw colored, rather than a full CTO (Color Temperature Orange).
Enjoy!

Thanks to Allie (Chris' daughter) for her great job!
