my little girl Gracie and Arlie the dog checking out a perfect misty winters morning together.
Some notes on the shot. This is amongst the first of the images I shot experimenting with “uni white balance”. Once I have it properly worked it out it will dominate my shooting style I think. Its is a powerful method for optimising file quality.
Shot near Meadows in the Fleurieu ranges

Thanks Tony! UniWB is a method of optimising exposure by using the camera RGB histogram. The uni WB gives an accurate histogram allowing better judgement of highlight clipping. Thats a simple explanation and to be honest a poor one. Better explanations on the web! In short it seems to work for me with cleaner images and better DR. More work and post processing but I love that anyways.
