The down and dirty way is to simply desaturate the blue. Quite easy to do in Adobe Elements. You can use "auto" color correct or simply dial down the blue in the master saturation. There are other more eloquent ways to accomplish this, but this serves most people well. Here are two I did for you. all the best, Pete

Another take on this is where I start just about all my corrections: using levels. First I adjusted the dynamic range of each channel by positioning the white and black sliders to shift the range to the light source. Next I positioned the center gray sliders for each of the channels to balance color (here away from blue and cyan toward red and yellow). Finally I lightened the correction a little using the center gray slider on the composite RGB channel. It takes just a moment when you know how ;-) I did add in a little desaturation of Cyan on top. The other issues here are the brights are virtually blowing out...not totally from what I measure. You may be able to bring back more of those details if you shot in RAW, or if you selectively darken the highlights (which can be tricky to make blend well). I hope that helps! Richard Lynch
