color balance

Tint distribution adjustment

Color balance is the overall distribution of colors in an image, particularly the relationship between warm and cool tones.

In photography and video, adjusting color balance corrects unwanted color casts—a photo taken under fluorescent lights might need its greenish tint removed.

The sunset shots needed color balance adjustment to match what we actually saw.
