I am working on the lighting in combination with exposure and ISO. Some how the color of the wall in the first one yellow's in the light.

You forgot the images. Unless you are working on blowing white to white! LOL!

Looks like you're mixing two types of light... flash & incandescent. Since the flash is stronger, that's what the camera will use for white balance, rendering the incandescent yellow.

That is what I was doing. How do you use just the incandescent under the image and still get it light enough to show the L and the candle?

No flash maybe

Turn off the flash.
Try a reflector, like a 5-in-1. Lacking that, a large white poster board.

Or, use more than one lamp.

Tried that that but it was really dark. I guess I could have increased the exposure time but did not have a tripod for that. Thanks, I'll just have to keep trying.

Thank you for the suggestion, I will try that this evening.

Or even wear a white tshirt. I did that on Sunday for some photos of my daughter and it worked reasonably well!

You can use gels to correct for different lighting.
