Hi,

I agree that white balance on the camera can change the perceived color.

What I thought the key question was is why the color change between top and
bottom.

On closer inspection the bottom has a back ground of purple more defuse
sparks
giving the impression/illusion the bottom half of the white sparks that
extend to the top are purple.
Does anybody else see that?

As side note:  given the spectral pass of the color filters in a camera are
fixed (for most cameras an amateur would have), what if any white balance
setting is natural. i.e. just outputs the intensities of the color pixels.
