Color temperature is an objective measure of the color of a light source, expressed in Kelvin (K).  Light sources 
with a color temperature close to that of direct sunlight appear white; light sources with a lower color tempera-
ture have a yellow or red cast, while those with a higher color temperature are tinged with blue.  You can match 
color temperature to the light source as shown in the following table, or choose options that diff   er sharply from 
the color of the light source to make pictures “warmer” or “colder.”
