the best filters are the expensive, (no surprises there) glass type that are threaded straight onto the lens so no other wavelengths seep through.You could stack (thread together) all three primary colors (R,G,B) and achieve white light. It's pretty cool too. Of course you'd have to adjust the exposure a LOT due to the density the light would have to pass through.
You got me on photoshop, although we used it exclusively in the Navy back in the late 90s and on, I personally never wandered off into the experimentation phases of it.
In fact for certain work we were forbidden to use it. For example in forensic, criminal and autopsy photos we weren't allowed due to the lack of chain of custody and none of the Jag officers wanted to challenge them in court and risk having them tossed out since the technology was just so damn new (the standing joke was if NCIS needed a 'smoking gun' at the scene of the crime all they had to do was ask lol...) Now there WAS software available that addressed this back in those days but the cost was in the high 5 figures and only the FBI and a few countie's police departments scattered across the country had 'em.
BUT for regular PR stuff (award ceremonies, command sit down portraits, etc.), the sky was the limit!
