The top picture is of the altar in the Basilica. On October 18, 2009, it was starting to get dark outside and it also cloudy, so the light that is visible in the picture is mostly due to the lights in the Basilica, or tungsten light. The bottom picture has been altered using Photoshop using the highlight dropper in order to calibrate it. The top photo has a lot of red, yellow, and orange in the photo. The bottom photo is much improved in terms of allowing the true hues to show. However, the limitation existed in determining what white to choose to base the other colors off of due to the risk of losing too much information. More should probably be done to eliminate the yellow tone to the walls, but it would have to be done carefully so that more information in the picture is not lost.
