Description
This is a total accident, I had pushed my camera inside my coat away from a shower. I got my camera out to take this shot and when the preview came up it was all BLUE. I found the problem I had caught the WB (white balance) button on the back of my camera. I must have pushed it against one of my shirt buttons. It had accidently set Tungsten Light. This setting adds loads of Blue to offset the Orange light from tungsten bulbs ideal when taking shots in the home. So no tweaking just a "Happy Accident" as Bob Ross would say!

I'm sure it did surprise you to see it turned out much better than you thought. It does have a moodiness to it and I like pushinfader's suggestion too.

Outstanding capture.Definitely useful when taking pictures of water such as dam's Lakes when the sun is harsh.When the sun is shining on the water the tungsten white balance setting helps giving the water the blue color instead of the shining glowing yellow silver color of the sun shining on the Water.So my friend this is no mistake it is a very useful setting that you can use.
