And as Derek pointed it out, the white balance seems quite different on the pic you submitted compared to the screenshot...

Yea i noticed that too. I have no idea why actually. The screensht was taken just after the saving. I couldn't figure out what it could be, but i thought to myself it must have been the angle of my laptop-screen. Nothing intentional here anyway.. I have nothing to hide. The 0.1 was just something I overlooked.

I'll have a look at the .psd file and the original RAW edit in .dng format to look what went wrng where. I can send them too if you like... But first some homework.
