  1. Decrease the Green values. The image appears decidedly green,
    so click in the numerical value field next to the Magenta-Green
    slider and enter a value of –10. This moves the Magenta-Green
    slider to the right, away from green. The results are depicted
    in Figure 6-11. The image has a lot of green objects, so it’s hard
    to tell exactly where to stop in your attempt to remove the green-
    based cast. But since the overall goal is to cool down the image,
    we need to be judicious about contributing too much magenta,
    so best to be conservative here.

  1. Increase the Blue values. The image is still too warm for my
    taste, so cool it way down by moving the third slider all the
    way to +40, thus increasing the blue value. You’ll notice in
    Figure 6-12 that the wall behind the boys and the sofa color
    are at last approaching a neutral gray.
