Im sure this is quite simple.

Basically in photoshop i'm trying to merge two images together in that i want half of one and half of another.
They align fine only the shots were taken inside under two completely different white balance settings so one is orangy and the other more blue. How do i make it so the colour balance is the same on both sides

Thanks

Russ

I assume these are jpeg images. If you are using CS3 you can get it to treat jpegs as RAW images. This way you can use the ACR dialogue box to set the Colour Temperature for both images to be the same.

You'll find it under preferences> File Handling... "Prefer A C R for jpegs"


Other wise you need to select one image as the reference and adjust the other's colour balance to match it using the Adjust Colour option in adjustments

do you want to whitebalance to stya as it is in each image or are you trying to make the WB the same in both?

EDIT: seen original my bad...sorry
