The orange in negative film is a dye applied differently to each color layer of
the film.  This adjusts for the differences in density between each layer.  The
fact that different amounts of orange are applied to each of the three or four
color layers makes it very difficult to remove in Photoshop.  Two films where
the composite of all the layers show the same orange cast are probably entirely
different.

The original thread was about a transparency accidentaly developed as a
negative so that it lacks the orange cast which needs to be added somehow
to get reasonable prints from the "negative" and make the best of a bad
lot. Would there be any way to do that with photoshop?.  P.J.Homer
