Blue Pictures I recently uploaded some pictures of my family's Easter egg hunt and every picture came out with a blue tint. Unfortunatly, this isn't the first time my pictures have come out completely blue. Both times the pictures were taken outdoors. Is there a way to prevent the blue tint?

Was your camera set to "tungsten"?

No. On one instance I had it set to auto, and the other was daylight.

Light can be "cooler' (bluer) early or late in the day or when the sun is not shining. Your white-balance control (or a warming filter) can correct this color shift. Bob

I hope this doesn't come across as too stupid of a question, but the white-balance control, is that the ISO?

The white-balance control is "auto" or "daylight" or "tungsten", etc.

What kind of camera are you using Wendy? If you use a point and shoot, you probably don't have the option to adjust white balance. And no, white balance and ISO are not the same thing.

I use a Polaroid i1032 digital. Bob emailed me and gave me a pretty detailed explanation of the white-balance and ISO and that seemed to help. It's a relatively new camera and I am unfamiliar with it. I haven't had a chance to sit and play with it as much as I would like. I am used to cameras such as my Nikon 35 mm that automatically adjusts itself. I'm finding that the Polaroid can be quite somewhat tempermental.
