Which looks better to you? I am struggling with getting my white balance right... I always seem to overlook it when setting up my camera.

Any help would be appreciated.

hmm have you tried using the custom white balance feature? the one on my xt is pretty good, might take one or two tries to get the camera to read the environment right though.

Shoot in RAW and get a WhiBal card.

Or... you could always convert to B&W, dodge and burn and... voila!

I don't see what the application of levels has to do with your WB title?

Converting to b/w is the lazy way... learn to do it with color and go to b/w not because you have to, but because you want to.

Check out photo comments for steps.
