I enjoy my wildlife photography and think I have a reasonable post-processing procedure, however there is one area particularly that I regularly fail in and that is continuity of colour ... perhaps more specifically white balance. Working from different sites and in different light often produces different colours but additionally when taking a series of shots in the same location with perhaps different lighting I struggle to get continuity of colour/WB. For example today, taking photos of birds on a grass background came out pretty uniform in colour/WB but as soon as I shot against a background of bright water it was more challenging to get continuity with the colour/WB of the other photos on the grass.
I'm sure that my problem rests not so much in processing as getting the colour/WB right in camera.
I use Auto-WB so basically the camera setting for WB is always the same and I often find myself adjusting it in processing and it really doesn't always work right.
Really looking for any guidance of what I can do 1) in camera and 2) in processing to get colour/WB continuity (without having to carry loads of gizmo's around with me as my bag is already heavy enough!
Any help & advice would be appreciated.
