Definitely a color balance issue, but it's the venue not the camera. The pool hall has a range of lighting, some quite red, some green and pure tungsten -- all converging right at the edge of the table where the shooters stand. So I compromise in conversion. The pics would probably be better as BW, but I had fun trying to balance things out. I'll probably do some conversions later, using the separate channels to determine gray values.
