"Color Temperature", "Color Balance", "White Balance". People new to photography, digital or traditional, often have a difficult time visualizing what these terms refer to initially. And even those who are familiar with these terms may not have a clear understanding of how they all work together.

This is the second of two lessons on this site focused on color temperature, color balance and white balance. The first lesson, entitled "Using Digital White Balance Indoors", examines color balance and lighting indoors, while this lesson runs through similar techniques for outdoor situations.
