For example, I try to take a pic in my garage of my engine bay, but all the red is too pink. Thanks!

Dave There are a couple of things you can do...the photo you posted looks like you took it in direct sunlight...that can wash the colors out. You can try a UV filter and try not taking the picture in direct sunlight...also flourecent lighting will play with colors as well. Dont know your camera but you may have a setting for that. MarksBlueMeanie 01-19-2009, 04:28 PM A UV filter would definitely help a lot if you can use one on your powershot. (Im not big on Canon.) Let me do some looking around for info on your camera and I will see what I can do. hulksdaddy 01-19-2009, 08:57 PM A UV filter would definitely help a lot if you can use one on your powershot.

It's just a little Canon PowerShot. I'll try to play around with it as soon as I can get my car out.
