Exercise - Judging colour temperature 2

I had my husband to be a model once again.

Full sunlight during middle of the day:

daylight/sunlight white balance
The result looks OK.


shade white balance:
The photo looks too orange.

Auto WB setting:
The photo looks OK.



In shade during the middle of the day:

daylight/sunlight white balance
The result looks slightly too blue.


shade white balance:
The photo looks only just too orange.


Auto WB setting:
The photo looks OK.


In sunlight when the sun is close to the horizon:
I took the photos near sun set. All setting look quite orange.
The colour temperature is lower, hence orange and the camera is trying to compensate by applying higher colour temperature, blue, to the photos but they still look cold .. orange.

daylight/sunlight white balance



shade white balance:


Auto WB setting:


The result of auto white balance, AWB, of this camera came out OK for most photos condition. I don't tend to change the white balance that much unless the photos look really strange like too blue or too orange then I would use RAW converter to change the white balance.

The colour of photo should not look the same. The different in colour has effect on how you feel when you look at the photo. The photo at sunset or sunrise will be more orange because the colour temperature is lower and by looking the photo, you will feel that it's the different time of the day than the photo taken during the day with slightly blue in the colour.
