Hello all!

I am having some issues with my settings. I am now just starting to use manual. The girl in the boxing gloves is the image I need help with. I'm using 1 34mm F1.8 lens. Mu ISO is 400 and speed is 1/500. Can anyone help? It's not clear and seems yellow.

Thanks!!

Rick, are you comfortable shooting RAW ? If so, shoot RAW ( or RAW + JPG ) and use Auto WB. With RAW you can change the WB later. As Jeff says, it looks like a WB issue

Its much harder to balance WB colours on JPGS, though it can be done. I ran your photo thru CS5, and played with layers using the Hue / Sat tool and individually desat yellows, but this doesnt achieve as much as it needed, so went to Image Adjustments after using selective Lasso, and changing the Hue /Sat on particular areas missed by the previous action.

Hope i've been some help !
