  try creating a hue/saturation layer mask that removes just the red light leak and paint it in as needed

  • this sounds like what i had in mind...– menos

  i would then use the same mask to create a layer mask to create a levels layer mask that would fix the color of the area once the reds removed......

  channel mixer may help you with masking... try R 100, G -100, B -100.

  adjust until you've got the flare isolated. Then convert to mask and use levels/HS to rebalance.

  sounds like a real pain in the ass though

  • hehehe i've got the time to try it out. thanks!– menos
