re: whitebalance, its one-click. ok, a little more than 1 click but almost. here's the summary (just for you, mate):
that's the basic idea. I intentionally mis-set the white balance a bit on the green side for the demo photo. I placed a white piece of paper just out of range of the final crop (zoom in, get a feel for what you want to keep in the frame, then zoom out a bit and place the paper JUST out of camera reach but DO include it in the shot).
all photo tools have some kind of levels control and some 'eyedropper' that lets you tell the program what a 'good white' is and also what good 'black' and 'grey' would also be, but I usually just want to tell it what an absolute white is, in my photo, and it will auto-snap the colors to make the white as neutral as possible.
