Auto – this is where the camera makes a best guess on a shot by shot basis.
Tungsten – this mode is especially under tungsten lighting. It generally cools down the colors in photos.
Fluorescent – this compensates for the ‘cool’ light of fluorescent light and will warm up your shots.
Daylight/Sunny – not all cameras have this setting because it sets things as fairly ‘normal’ wb settings.
Cloudy – this setting generally warms things up a touch more than ‘daylight’ mode.
Flash – the flash of a camera can be quite a cool light so Flash WB mode you’ll find it warms up your shots.
Shade – the light in shade is cooler (bluer) than shooting in direct sunlight, this mode warm things up a little.

It does seem that a lot of experiments is needed to get in-dept appreciation of
these settings, I am sure some of you experts know exactly what to
do in each condition ...
