I agree that the revised image 1 looks better, though the brightness can be pulled down still by a little.

Sabyasachi,

Thanks for bringing up a valid point. I agree with you about discussing the processing algorithm on the forum.

I have not been able to get hold of Lightromm 4; I still use PS CS5 and Lightroom 3.4...In PS CS5, if you are opening a RAW image (one needs to have the adobe camera RAW downloaded; its free), the color tempeature can be tweaked either similar to in-camera settings (sunny, auto, cloudy etc..) or can be set to a specific temperature that suits the image. Along with this, there is a tint slider that can help in reducing any tint.

Regards
