I took a while to respond to this one. Sorry. But I'm unsure of some
comments here. I wrote the pink out line. By which I mean "Does it cause
whites (such as snow etc) to have a pink shade?".

Then Ulf wrote that they show a bluish cast in midday sun.

How can a film show a pinkish caste for white and then a bluish caste in
strong daylight? Or am I misreading this again?

Thanks

Foxy. (Niam's crying. He's too young to understand the importance of OM)
