Color temperature
Artificial (tungsten-filament) lights are warmer (more orange) than sunshine, which is warm near dawn, cools (more blue), then warms again at evening. Our eyes modify color temperature without us noticing, so color looks consistent. Digital cameras may neutralize colors using white balance. When it's wrong (or you utilize the improper camera setting), a color cast results.
