I use X-Rite Colorchecker for my WB refernce, but in the shade images look to yellow to me. (I am using D65 calibrated monitor)
Hi,
The adjusted image looks too red/orange to me. Which raises the question, how did you shoot the ColorChecker?
When in a natural surrounding, your CC will be illuminated with lots of ambient (grass or soil color, tree bark and canopy, blue sky, white clouds, etc.) and direct illumination, although in the shade it's mostly a mix of reflected light. That means that the angle/positioning of the CC becomes important. IMHO, one should position the CC
at the subject position and perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens.
Then that will allow to create a neutral WB, but that's only the starting point. From there you can add ambiance, e.g. add a bit of a green tint when under tree canopy, or a bit of blue if you want to stress the shadow appearance, or leave it at correct color balance if that matters more.
Also note that the brightest step (#19) of the colorchecker is not as neutral as the second brightest step (#20).
Cheers,
Bart
