Thank you, thank you asoftwind, I think you've come closest to what I was hoping for. Please tell me you did it in Lightroom or that there's a way I can edit a bunch of images easily.....

No, I do not own Lightroom. I do my work in PSPX5. I used a variety of techniques to get to the end result, imcluding Curves, Levels and HSL adjustment layers, further adjusted colors by painting on color raster layers, and finally selectively applied some vibrance. This a pretty simplified answer, because the actual workflow was quite a bit more involved.

Hi Andrew,
I used Lightroom`s HSL panel first followed with Nik`s Viveza2 and some Paintshop Pro X6.

I use CC and started in ACR, reducing some of the coloured lighting cast with the white balance tool and colour adjustments in HSL. Back in Photoshop, placed a colour sampler on the known whites and blacks and used curves to balance the RGB values (245,245,245 and 11,11,11). Because of the numerous light sources, sampling the unaffected colour and painting on new layers in colour mode removed the lighting colours.

Andrew, you have a real problem with your white balance setting. A Canon 5D II would have produced much better colors if the WB setting was correct. If you have a raw file, it would be pretty easy to fix in post processing.
I did a fast and dirty fix using Photoshop CS2 (a ten year old program!).
The original shot:
My "improved version"
This took me all of four seconds to do. And I know others have done a much better job than I have, but I still think I made an improvement to the pink color cast.

What I did:
- Brought color saturation down. Way down.
- Pushed the black point up in levels
- Used the black, white, and grey pointers in levels to get best looking results

I think the OP was asking for help. Simply correcting this image (very beautifully done) without direction doesn't help.

There's no point in all thirty of us giving full explanations. The OP, after deciding which they think best, can simply ask the person who did it.
There's far too much duplication of well intended effort in this Forum and frequently, without any response from the OP. I guess they all start and often only finish when many others have done the same.
I always consider it as throwing one's work into the Trevvy Fountain in the hope that someone benefits.
Recently, everyone seems to pounce on a particular job and may contribute perhaps 40 or 60 postings to a problem solved long before the numbers reached double figures. They certainly won't all be thanked and detailing the methods would be a disproportionate waste of time.

And I agree. Should anyone be curious as to what methods I used, all they have to do is ask here and, if I can remember, I'll do my best to explain.

I also agree, Gary. While most of us try to help with workflow when we can, it is not always possible. To be criticized for not doing so is ridiculous. My guess is he wants to know himself, but is too proud to ask for the workflow for his own useage.

The major step was to create a Solid Color adjustment layer, set the opacity at 50%, Hue layer mode, and try different shades of greenish yellow until I got the best results. For the screen grab below, I turned off all the other layers consisting of just routine retouch so you can see the effects of the Solid Color layer alone. The other layers included some painting in Color mode, Hue/Sat adjustments, and Selective Color adjustment.
