Puppies in morning light

They were sleepy and groutchy that i was making them pose! I'd like your feedback on color/white balance. That's my biggest struggle right now. When I brought them into the computer, they were all like a burnt red. I shopped out a lot of saturation and painted in accurate coloring on the bedspread and blue drapes.

well, the white balance is definitely off. I'm on an uncalibrated monitor, but the WB changes from shot to shot. #4 probably looks the most accurate, but they all look a tad orange. maybe cause of the walls, I dunno.

yes, we call it "the dreamscicle room" b/c of the wall color =)

So in a situation like this, should white be perfect white? I notice just as i was standing there, the dogs highlight had a tinge of yellow in them and I was trying to emulate that...but I guess I should push them further/desaturate more?
