Does anyone know how I can get around this problem:
The ribbon is purple, but looks blue to me.
I am taking the photo on a desktop shooting table and as I don't have any 'proper' lighting, I am using the continuous daylight kit I got with my light tent (not using the light tent anymore). The lights came with a cover and there are 3 lamps in each head, so I can sort of control the light. I thought I could try and use one of these as a softbox if I put a cover over the head.
So, I have the item of the shooting table and to the right/above the head of the light. That's it. No matter what I try I can't get it looking any more purple than in the photo above. I'm sure it could be adjusted in photoshop, but I would like to get it as good as possible first (without buying more lights). Is this possible, or do I need to dig deep and spend more money?
