This is picture using the white paper and putting it under direct florescent lighting. when I first left it to automatically set my white balance it was a little gray next I tried tungsten it was yellow the florescent setting made it look like its white color. Also sorry I couldn't find the date turn off button on the camera.

This picture was taken in a slightly yellow environment it was a little dimmer I tried almost every setting. the color in this photo is still slightly yellow and the purple was changed in a more brown purple daylight gave me the best color in the swatch but the surroundings were a little off then.

 I purposely used the exact same settings on this color as I did on the last to see the difference in colors. This almost made it look neon yellow and gave it kind of a fuzzy appearance compared to the other color swatch.

I used lots of settings to try and find something that brought out the purple without enhancing the purple specifically.
 
Unfortunately this picture didn't turn out as planned the  brush strokes of the paint were made very visible and I find that it brings attention to the broken piece of the vent.

This was taken in the Cosmo hall right by the staff bathroom door. I chose to place it there to use the cloudy setting. It did make the white less beige but it could be better. I would try with flash maybe next time.

I put the two color side by side in better lit area to look at the difference in the colors it made the green more yellow and purple more brown which is not what I expected.

  1. Good work, Kate. Your comments reflect good experimentation and strong effort to understand the concept. The light is what casts the colour on the scene. We often can't see it because our eye and brain automatically filters that subtle colour out. This is why, sometimes, people look sick or "sallow" under certain lights - the colour changes how we see their faces in extreme situations. Using the proper white balance setting should clear this up but sometimes you get some kooky results. (date stamp is the control you want in menu and tools on the camera)
