Did you notice my White Balance setting was set to "Fluorescent light". If you look at several of my latest shots, I had the White Balance set to this. This seems to help when shooting in bright sun... Try it... play with your settings. I've even used the preset "Mountain" (distance) setting for closeup shots and found interesting DOF shots...
