Depending on their temperature, stars differ in their colors. Although it sounds a bit counterintuitively, colder stars emit "warm" yellow light, whereas hot stars emit "colder" blueish light. Although it's not always that easy to see this color in photos, taking a photo with the lens out of focus makes the colors very clear, as can be seen in the example below.

Six photos (each with slightly different focus) combined into one, to make the colors clear. Most stars look blueish, but Betelgeuse in the upper left clearly has a yellow/orange color. The "star" under Orion's belt which looks a bit reddish is in fact not a star but the Orion Nebula. (2016-02-29)
