Bug Description
All my screenshots taken on 20.04 with wayland have an orange tint to them. This appears to be the overlay which you get when selecting an area. Full screen screenshots and window screenshots are unaffected, only area screenshots appear to have the problem.
Steps to reproduce
Login to a wayland session
Hold down Shift and Press PrintScreen
Select an area to screenshot
Navigate to ~/Pictures
Open the picture you just took
Expected outcome
Screenshot of area taken as it would have been on screen
Actual outcome
Screenshot is taken, but has an orange border and overlay. (see screenshot)

The screenshoting is handled by gnome-shell itself nowadays, reassigning there
