Hi everyone!

Why is the sky washed out while my wife with a point and shoot gets blue
skys?
It seems to me the sky was quite blue when I took this photo:

Any ideas? Recommendations?


First guess would be improper white balance. The exif info in the
photo says the camera was set to manual WB. So, exactly how did you
set it? If you're just beginning start with auto WB of set the proper
preset for the scene at hand, such as sunny for this scene.
