I have been thinking how to fix my digital camera because I always see color cast on my pictures. Will surely try to experiment with the white balance feature of my digital camera.

I had a peak through your Flickr stream but all colors appeared fine to me. We'll have a look at one specific picture and see if we can figure out how you can improve on it.

I am so sorry I missed you on Sheila's call!! I did not know you would be there! I am practicing shooting mostly on Av and Manual. I don't know how to use the P setting and how it is different than the C or Custom setting? My photography Meetup Group had someone explain about white balance and I thought I understood, however, in practice it did not work. So in either Av or Manual, how do I take close ups of flowers, for instance and get the colors correct. I have tried using the settings for the different kinds of light as you explained and that sometimes gets a little more purple than before, however the flower is still more dark blue than purple. The gold cloth I photographed something on for Sheila class outside, looked more orange and I had used the sunlight setting, being in sunlight and changed my angle. Still looked light orange instead of gold. THANKS SO MUCH!! HUGS, Morgine Hello! I am so sorry I missed you on Sheila’s call!! I did not know you would be there!

Which setting are you currently shooting in? Auto, Program, Tv or Av? There could be numerous factors at play here. Let's see if we can figure it out! Ingrid Hi Morgine,

Thanks for your question. Which setting are you currently shooting in? Auto, Program, Tv or Av? There could be numerous factors at play here. Let’s see if we can figure it out!

I want to get CORRECT colors. I take purple flowers, for instance, inside and out ...and I keep getting blue flowers. I also do not get fabric colors correctly. I learned where my white Balance is on my Cannon Powershoot and I was told to use a white board or 18% gray board first and it did not change anything. So exactly how do I use the White Balance? Do I put in on and click first and then go back to Manual or P or Av or some other again setting and shoot the photo? THANKS so much. I love close up with flowers and plants and their colors are often not ss I SEE them. THANKS so much! Hello …. I want to get CORRECT colors.
