Used to go blue...now go yellow...help

[sheila3]

Hey all! So I used to not see the blue cast on my pictures. Now I do but it seems I now go a bit too yellow or saturated. Took my kids out for a walk during the golden hour ( hour before sun sets?). We kind of went opposite way so sun was going behind buildings so no cool glow on hair but still nice light. Anyways as you can tell from this photo my daughter begrudgingly let me take a picture of her. Mainly wondering what you think of the skin tone and overall color of picture. Too yellow? Too blue? Just right? Also any other critique you may have is more than welcome. Thanx so much!

the colour actually seems like it's fine; not too blue or yellow, or cool or warm. make sure your monitor screen is calibrated, because you may be seeing your picture's colours inaccurately. otherwise, i really like this portrait! great light, and it really shows alot about your daughter's mood!

Color looks fine on my calibrated monitor. As the previous poster said, a calibrated screen is important to accurately determine color

color is very good. surprisingly not warm since this was taken during the golden hours. just a teeny bit over exposed on my monitor.

Thanx everyone. I thought it was good but don't trust my eyes. Just recently calibrated my monitor so that has helped. Almost think it would be better if I wasn't able to fix everything when shooting RAW. Just kidding. But I do sit there forever trying to get everything perfect and I'm never sure. I'm sure that confidence will come in time.
