Colour correct your photos

The basic thing of the picture is there colour somethimes the picture is blueish,yellowish ,too much light etc etc .
to correct that thing photoshop offer a large variety of tools .I prefer you to use the level tool it ts best in my opinion because its shows the three basic elements of the photo
shadow level
midtone level
highlight level
by adjusting these three u can get the better image .
Here i am providing a link which will better explain this whole then me :)

Intorduction To Photoshop
