The neat thing about your shoot is... who cares what the colour balance is because under those kind of lighting conditions one isn't shooting a pound of butter and expecting perfect colour balance. Sure captured a nice mood of the location and that's what counts more than whether a shirt is a perfect white or warm yellowee sort of some colour. :-) ted
