    Nicely done, just enough of the child is in focus to see his admiration of the toy.

    Re: My bike

    This one is a bit strange, Tejal. While I like the overall composition and the soft focus on the boy, the mixed colour temperatures really don't work for me; I don't think the boy has greenish skin in real life. I also feel the crop is a touch tight on the left. Again, I find you are missing on your black and white points, so the image is not as crisp as it should be.

    The green cast can be neutralized with a magenta overlay, but just on the boy's skin (the eyes are not quite right yet, but I just wanted to provide a general thought here). I think this gives a more realistic and pleasing look. Unfortunately, picking up coloured overtones because of where the subject is standing can be a bit problematic.

    Thanks for the feedback Manfred. The pic was taken at night, in one exhibition, where lights were like this. Light part i didnt touch while processing. But yes while processing, I could do the adjustment, which I skipped here . I will correct it as per your suggestion. Thanks once again

    That would make sense. Fluorescent and compact fluorescent bulbs are everywhere and they tend to throw a green colour cast.

    Mixed lighting, especially when fluorescent lights are involved, can be problematic and impossible to fix 100%.

    I tried but then i felt things are getting more imbalance in frame so left it as it is .

    The idea is there and then the shot...I do not know what camera you've used here, but in the D810 there are 8 flourescent options when shooting. If you do not have a D810, the following is the itemized list in Kelvin equivalent...

    Thanks Izzie for your valuable guidance. I have Canon 1100D. Not sure whether it has this facility or not. I will check it .
