Some blocks (water, fire, ice, lava) aren't rendered right/look strange

The yellow water was not from an edited swamp biome water color, btw

Also the effect is not seen when i am close to the specified blocks or past a certain distance away.

From what I can tell, you have your graphics set to fast, and you were using a night vision potion when these screenshots were taken, yes?

You have MCPatcher 2.4.4 with MipMapping enabled running.
Either switch off MipMapping or get a decent texture pack.

Its not night vision potion or fast graphics, i tested it with out and i had the same result.
The solution is if you use mcpatcher, turn off mipmapping
