as above i know a few of you guys can get some cracking shots under atanics but all i seem to capture is the blue of the atanics.
see the pic below its my new orange torch looks a lot more orange under my ati blues to my eyes but can barely get the orange to show in photos.

i normally dont have any probs during halide goodness hours can get some cracking shots just the mornings and evenings im struggling with.

using a fuji s7000 so is a popular camera so any help would be great.

Looks over-exposed.. try dialling back the exposure, and then take the picture into the photo editor of your choice and adjust the white balance to bring the colours out.

It's much easier to do it with software (use something like GIMP as it's free, and the Levels tool.. it's *very* easy to use).. and you've either got to learn to do it with software or get around to learning how to do it in the camera.

As I'm not familiar with that model of camera all I can do is suggest you read the manual and see how to set manual white balance on the camera if it has that function.

You're very unlikely to get *perfect* images straight out of any camera, especially under these types of condition.
