Assignment #6 White Balance - Mini Assignment

  • This assignment was to use Auto.White.Balance (AWB) as the 1st picture inside and outside, then use the lighting that fitted the environment as the 2nd photo. As for the 3rd photo we were to take a picture using a pre-set white balance of choice.


White Balance (left to right) Auto, Tungsten, Flouresant

This is my indoor set of photos I took. I noticed a slight difference between the AWB and the rooms actual white balance being flouresant. Flouresant lighting showed the white through the lense to be more closer to the natural colour of the object itself. As for Tungsten it is obviously the farthest away from the original, with a blue tint.

This is my outside set of photos where

This is my outdoor set of photos in the front of school where I captured the animals and old school telephone leaving the building. Yes! They have officially "left the building".. Haha
It was kinda sunny outside with a little bit of clouds which is why i could see the AWB working but the pre-set Sunny option worked best of course because that was the environment. Then there is the tungsten again that has the tint of blue which kinda makes it feel alot more cloudy but on the other hand the farm animals and phone are white original, not blue...
As a side note... imagine: walking around
 in the public eye with a little telephone attatched
to a string (that is as old as maybe 45 years of age)
provided from my awesome focus teacher
and two farm animals courtesy of
 another one of my awesome teachers!
Oh if looks could kill haha,
people these days are alot more crazier
 than I looked on this day so give me a break,
 im just taking photos!  :D

  1. To start off...I'd be careful. I'll be mentioning the 45 years to Tim. You might want to re-think that. I used to have one as a kid!

    Great job with the white balances. Do you know why tungsten tints photos blue? Tungsten light tends to have yellow in it, so when selecting the tungsten setting, the camera adds blue to try and balance out the yellow from the original light source.
