How Do I Eliminate Digital Distortion?

I have a Sony DSC-S75 (3.3 Mega Pixel) camera. I love the images I take but in many of my photos the background is distorted. It only seems to happen with light colors (beige, light yellow, off white, gray). It's sort of like a digitized "blur." It even happens sometimes on skin tones if it's a close up. If I have dark or sharp colors in the background (reds, blues, dark green etc.) it's not an issue at all.

This is very frustrating especially to my wife who can't understand why I spent all the money I did to get a digital camera in the first place.

Is this an issue of my settings? Lighting? Digital cameras in general?

I love the possibilities a digital camera provides but it's not a long term direction if I can't get this issue resolved.

Thanks for your help.

Here are some examples of my photos with this problem.

Your problem could be solved by applying a simple colour management system. If I could invite you to visit our website, www.lmal.co.uk we could help you improve your picture quality through calibrating your monitor, scanner and printer. This will then allow you to be confident that the image you see on your monitor will be the same as what is printed.
