Thats where the white balance settings come in, at least for me. I wont hi jack this thread lol, but if you want to PM me I can show you a couple examples. Also if you shoot in raw you can adjust this post when opening the photo, so you can try it on the photos you already have.

Thanks for that tip!! I will give that a shot tonight while out on the ramp

While I loved the fact I had the opportunity for a night photo, I was completely unhappy with the barrage of yellow that came from the floodlights on the CAF ramp.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh Jealous!     That last shot was the one I wanted!!!  You guys know me and my love for shooting the planes alone at night!!!!!  Great job.

P.S. Did you shoot this in raw? If so, what I do with a lot of my night shots like this is set my white balance to florescent and adjust from there, it can give the photos a whole different look if you wanted to try that ;-)

FiFi and her escorts arrived just after between 2:30 and 3:00pm.      Original schedule was 11:00am.    With lots of times forcasted between.    All good fun while we waited around, though.

Just got home from there, and yeah she was running late, but we all found way to entertain ourselves! =) 9 hours I wouldnt rather spend anywhere else anyways hehehe. The moment she came into view being escorted by a Mustang, Spitfire, Bearcat, Hellcat, and a Zero all the waiting was forgotten!
9 hours of waiting?!?!  That is commitment!

Weather is not the best here in the Valley at the Warner Ctr and I hear similar at KCMA so delays maybe weather related.
