    Our new stone walled veggie patch

    In the corners there is lemon grass for tea. There are four squash. Ginger for a million uses (including chocolate ginger fudge and ginger ale) fills up the rest. In the background is what has become our library and may yet become my studio. Far left is our small but nearly soundproof house.

    Brian, under overcast light condition, light is bouncing every where and the
    result (and consequence) is that since it is all in green around your subject,
    the bouncing light is "greening" the scene. The remedy is to read to WB on
    one of the dry stones of the wall in the foreground; this should remove the
    green cast over your little paradise!

    This is the corrected WB version:

    And this could be a possible rendition suggestion:

    One small problem; I have no idea what you are talking about! 'Read to WB on one of the dry stones'?

    Brian, select the WB tool's picker and sample the red circled rock.
    This simple tool can be used for both…
    1. read to WB
    2. such a rock is a good "grey card" for the exposition… which was not
    needed in this case.

    Here is, on the original posted photo, the targeted stone:

    I think I found the WB tool you are referring to in Rawtherapee. It does make a difference and I shall have fun learning how to use it! Thanks
