So I have had my D90 for a little over a week, I'm loving it. I knew it would be leaps and bounds ahead of a P&S, but never realized how far ahead... lol
I can't stop taking pictures... i'm still learning a ton, but I feel as if I am getting better and better everyday.
I am shooting pretty much solely in Apeture Mode (where I chose Aperture and the camera selects the shutter speed) and mostly with my 35mm lense with a little of the 18-105 and 70-300 sprinkled in (i've been doing indoor shots thus far). Also shooting in RAW mode.
Now to my question, white balance. I have it set to Auto (along with iso auto). I have been playing around with Lightroom 2.5 and it's auto whitebalance setting... boy does it change the picture... here is an example (i know i know, not the best picture... i'm still learning!!!):

B: http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/928/90475981.jpg
A is what my camera took, B is white lightroom "auto" whitebalance did. No doubt in my mind do I think A looks better, but I feel like B is more releastic colors though not exact... on a scale, say A is 1 and B is 10, it is about a 7. If anyone has any tips please enlighten me. It seems like something is off, but can't quite put my finger on it
