Blue Pic when working with Appeture Setting

[Alicia]

I am a very amature photographer and I have a Cannon EOS 550D and when I try to play with the AV (appeture setting) alot of my photos come out looking blue.

I have attached a pic to show you what I mean.

I have played around with all the settings and read the manual and have started to read the photography course on this website but I cannot fix my problem.

Thank you so much

what white balance is the camera on Alicia?

I agree with the above you have probably got the WB on one the artificial Light settings instead of Shade

Or the auto is getting it horribly wrong.

Try different WB settings. Or, if you know what it means to shoot in RAW, do that.

Or, get the dog to breathe out.

Thank you so much. Yes, I had the WB setting on Tungsten Light. So much to check. So much to learn but thank you all. Yes Scotty I will try shooting in RAW but I havent learnt much about what RAW is about yet. Slowly getting there, but i deffinately have a long long way to go.

I will have another go at shooting tomorrow and playing with WB. Thank you everyone.
