Self Portrait ~Day 30 and the right white balance

This is my last picture for this project!

30 Days.

I was in a shaded area with a lot of sunlight behind me when I shot this.

I would usually have my camera set to Cloudy White Balance (White Balance determines how cool or warm a picture should be).

I forgot to change it and the white balance was set for full sun.

This is my picture set to the wrong white balance.

I had edited it before I realized I did not really like it and chose to change the white balance.

Here is another picture I took with only the white balanced fixed to cloudy.

No other touch ups were made.

Here is the original with no touch ups set to full sun.

Do you have a camera that lets you set the white balance?
