Colours (again)

Ok, following-on from my I though I had it sussed by using fixed White Balance, or maybe it was a lens issue, but...no! Brand new, out of the box, DA 12-24. Shooting RAW, AV Mode, ISO-200. These two shots are less than a second apart, but the colours are quite different! ARGH! Open them in adjacent tabs or similar and flick between them... http://img90.imageshack.us/g/imgp0703.jpg/ Its more apparent full-size, but reduced by 1/4 for speed downloading! Not done any processing, this is straight out of Pentax DCU-4 software. What am I missing here? Yes I know the sky is blown-out, more concerned about the colours here not the exposure... Please tell me I'm being a silly noob and not doing something obovious, its driving me nuts!

Is tat also purple fringing on the trees? I wouldn't have expected that from the 12-24 .

PF is also caused by the camera so not only the lens is to blame.

But there aren't any shadows in your pics, so the sun must have been behind one of the few clouds.

Glad you've got the root of the problem, anyway.
