Adjust an image's color temperature

Photographers and creators can correct lighting that looks too yellow or blue, especially before combining several images.

Shift an image's color temperature toward warmer or cooler tones and obtain a natural balance or a deliberately distinct atmosphere.

How to use

Load the picture whose colours look too yellow, too blue or simply unbalanced.
Move the temperature control one way to warm the tones and the other way to cool them down.
Watch neutral areas such as a white wall or grey fabric, because they show whether the correction is moving in the right direction.
Process the image when the preview looks right, then download the generated file.
Clear the picture from the page if you want to continue with another image.

Example

A photographer edits portraits shot under very yellow indoor lighting. They cool each image slightly to bring skin tones closer to normal, then check that shadows do not turn blue before continuing with the rest of the edit.

Limits and formats

The adjustment affects the whole frame rather than selected areas.
It is not a replacement for a precise colour chart or a grey-card measurement.
An uncalibrated screen can make your judgement unreliable during the edit.
The output keeps the quality limits of the original file format.

Where processing happens

Temperature calculations run in your browser. The image is read on your device, the colour shift is applied locally, and the resulting file stays with you instead of being sent to a remote service.

Frequently asked questions

How can I tell which direction to move the control?

Compare neutral objects in the photo with how they should look. If whites feel yellow, move toward cooler tones; if they feel blue, move toward warmer tones. Small steps are usually safer than a large jump.

Does this setting change exposure?

It mainly shifts the balance between warm and cool colours. Brightness may appear slightly different after the change, but this control is not intended to fix an underexposed or overexposed image.

Can I match the colour of two photos?

You can adjust each image until they look closer, but the tool does not measure one photo against another. For product or event sets, compare the results side by side and make small changes rather than forcing identical values.
