I am still a fairly new "noob" as well man ! Practice makes perfect !! Do you have a DSLR or a Point & shoot ? This is 3 pics put together ! It's the Newfoundland Ferry,Nova Scotia,Canada !
pfft potn is useless. only reason I visit there is to buy used gear off people that overspend on something they have no clue how to use.
If you're shooting in manual then you probably forgot to manually set the white balance. But, looking at the difference in exposures in the sky, I don't think you were shooting in manual mode.l
