Irfan View | | LordPotty
(12035) [2007-05-10 20:47:32] | Using Irfan View, a simple and free editing program, I have increased the saturation a little, reduced the blue component (by 44), then I have reduced the gamma correction (glare) slightly, and sharpened the image.
As you can see,the bluish haze is gone and some of the original colour restored.
Hope you like it.
