:hiclp: Hi Robert -- Can you take them in Brighter light? Not sure if it me, or my screen, or my eyes 8) but it is hard to tell the color as everything kinda has a tint of blue to it...maybe it it just me here ;D

Rose the blue effect is caused by the fact that blue light bends(refracts in air) more than red light. This means that photos taken under the eaves of a house are always slightly blue. This just looks like an extreme example.
Could I suggest Robert that you need to take them in direct sunlight - but a dull day will cut down shadows and reflections dramatically and produce a better result. Side benefit is that the extra light will cause your camera to "stop down" which has the added benefit of improving the focus.
