Yes I know its out of focus and a bad picture but I wasnt trying for that I am just wanting to get the yellow out first.
 
Yup, White Balance issue.
 
This is a continuation from another post. The OP knows the WB is the issue has tried custom grey card, changing it in camera etc. Can you post the exif data for this image?

I pulled it off with Opanda

Exposure Time (1 / Shutter Speed) {0x829A} 1/10 second ===> 0.1 second
Lens F-Number / F-Stop {0x829D} 28/5 ===> ƒ/5.6
ISO Speed Ratings {0x8827} 800
Original Date/Time {0x9003} 2010:11:25 01:32:14
Shutter Speed Value (APEX) {0x9201} 13301/4004
Shutter Speed (Exposure Time) 1/10 second
Aperture Value (APEX) {0x9202} 40761/8200
Aperture ƒ/5.6
Flash {0x9209} Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode
Focal Length {0x920A} 75/1 mm ===> 75 mm
Image Width {0xA002} 3888 pixels
Image Height {0xA003} 2592 pixels
 
I don't see anything wrong with it except for the only thing that comes to mind is that she didn't do WB correctly. Either that, or she just forgot to use the correct grey card image to set us the custom WB in her camera before switching to manual.

Can you show us the image you used to tell your camera what the custom WB should be? Or did you delete it?

Your colour temp needs to be in the 3000s for all these sorts of lights.
 
custom gray card?

was the room mixed with different light sources, i.e. daylight, cf and incandescent?

this could mean that it was gray carded to a bluer CF bulb or a cloudy sky and the primary light for ambient was incandescent or a yellower cf bulb

the yellow range is more like 2400-3400. your answer is over simplified and could lead to the photo being slightly blue

shoot in raw and set your final wb in post production
when you have hundreds of photos getting it right in camera is super important.

I wasn't referring to only this photo but various lights mentioned.

Tungsten redheads are 3200 so i guess that tungsten lightbulbs for house use are probly a little less, like 3000 or 2900? If that helps any further to this particular picture.

no lights were mentioned...

tungsten (incandescent) lightbulbs are rated 2400-3400. the exact temperature depends on the brand and amount of electricity through the bulb. higher wattage bulbs are a different temperature from lower ones. ever notice how a tungsten bulb on a dimmer really low turns reddish? flourescent yellows are 2700-3400.

a lot of photo floods are 3400s
