Batik ~ Red Dye Bath?

If this is RED, then I think I must be color blind! It is a dark ORANGE!!!! Oh, the wrath of the "Dye Gods"... so on to plan "B". I waxed the so called red parts and have decided to add another step...its going into a brown dye to tone down the red-orange. Then on to black. I have a feeling that the black will only be dark brown. So be it, this will be one that is in the warm colors of autumn...
