Comes out blue here (ACR/CS5) for "as shot"

The "Camera Raw Properties" shows the temperature when shot as 2100K.
But I suspect it may have been lower than that in camera. When shooting
with "warmlight" settings (tungsten film) in daylight, everything shifts
blue.

Regardless, because it is raw you can just set the colour temp to the
conditions (6000K or so) and get a photo that represents the actual
conditions.
