This is a professionally taken photo. _White balance is clearly right on._ I was going to use one of my photos, but I chose this one to take the potential PS element out of it. ![http://www.amadirectlink.com/riding/reviews/2006/ZX10R/yellow.jpg](http://www.amadirectlink.com/riding/reviews/2006/ZX10R/yellow.jpg) **What color do you SEE?** (not what is the name of the paint) OF the two options… if you had to choose yellow or orange? which is it MORE (will thinks this is YELLOW and is clearly out of his MELON) ---
