Lance - Let no one suggest to you that this is elementary. Filtering for color temperature, especially in mixed light, is something which even the most experienced film-makers still struggle with. When you are shooting negative, the print compensates some. When you are scanning, you can "filter" with photoshop. But when you are looking at a chrome on the light table, there is nothing between you and the situation with which you were faced, and often time you cannot filter effectively for all you are dealing with...
