# Remove a color cast using Levels

This technique requires color correction experience and some knowledge of the RGB color wheel.

1. Do one of the following:

   - Choose Enhance > Adjust Lighting > Levels.

   - Choose Layers > New Adjustment Layer > Levels, or open an existing Levels adjustment layer.

2. Choose a color channel to adjust from the Channel pop‑up menu:

   - Red to add red or cyan to the image.

   - Green to add green or magenta to the image.

   - Blue to add blue or yellow to the image.

3. Drag the middle input slider left or right to add or subtract color.
4. Click OK when you are satisfied with the overall color.

You can use the gray eyedropper in the Levels dialog box to quickly remove a color cast. Double-click the eyedropper and make sure that the RGB values are equal. After you close the Color Picker, click an area in your image that should be a neutral gray.
