Hi Everyone,
I've been lurking here trying to learn more about digital photography and image processing. I'm working on a time lapse project where we are watching how colors change over time, and I was wondering if anyone has had experience calibrating photos. I'm hoping to describe color changes independent of any changes in lighting. For example, right now I'm in Mendocino and smoke is changing colors quite a bit!
We'll be taking photos once a day (RAW) around noon using an intervalometer and the same manual exposure setting. I was planning on putting a color chart out that will be seen in each photo, and then adjusting the photos to correct for smoke, cloud, and seasonal changes in sun position.
As someone new to the forum I feel guilty asking for help when I have not contributed, so thanks ahead of time!
Best,
Mike
