White Balance Photographs

Today we learnt about our cameras' white balance settings. Here are some photographs from our experiments.


I think this photograph makes the bricks more red than they are in reality but I really like the warmth and colour.



I like the crisp cool greeness of the plants and that you can clearly see the reflections of the windows.



I like the detail of the flower although having it in the centre of the frame was probably not the most visually interesting option.
