Hrmmm.  The first couple of times I used this technique (on other but 
similar shots) I noticed an excessive blue in some of the recovered 
highlights.  Actually, it was called to my attention; I am slightly but 
not completely color challenged and I thought it was a gray rather than 
a blue tinge.

When I adjusted this shot I tried to tone down the 'multiply blending' 
and such but maybe I wasn't entirely successful.  Of the people who have 
seen it you were the first one to mention it.  It may be that you have a 
better monitor or a more acute eye for color.

Be that as it may I accept it is there and will work on the issue some 
more.  I am convinced it can be fixed, I'm just not there yet.

I think.
