About Photography

To achieve the color difference between the blue exterior of the window and the warm yellow interior I mixed daylight light with tungsten.  Regular daylight from my studio windows lit the exterior window and snow in this scene.  I used tungsten lights mixed with candle light on the background.  Later I post-processed the RAW image twice, once with a blue cast to enhance the exterior window color, and once with an enhanced yellow cast to emphasize the interior.  I stacked the two images as layers in Photoshop with the warm light on bottom and cool light on top.  Next I masked out the windows to allow the warm light to come in.
