    Quite often you may take a photograph that looks like it has an odd colour tinge to it - these are known as colour casts.

    Off colors, or color casts are a well known problem in photography.  With a digital camera its quite easy to solve - use the white balance (WB) settings to deal with any problems. Choose Auto or the right WB settings for the scenario – for example, INCANDESCENT will fix cold blue lights nd TUNGSTEN will solve the orangey overly warm lighting by counteracting it with blue.

    Have a play and see what you think!
