Looking good Ben.

Attempted fix by using different PP methods. It appears better to me, how does it look to others?Red Admiral 060817(2) by Ben Gray, on Flickr

I see purple fringes now, especially along the top of the largest area and the top of the leftmost area beneath it. What did the original look like? Was it raw or JPEG?

Yeah, the fringes are in the raw, but I couldn't get rid of them in rawtherapee.

If you have Photoshop just use the lasso tool to select the affected areas then go edit/hue and saturation, select magenta and pull the level right down, if it doesn't reduce the exact shade set the saturation level slider to its lowest and move the cursor of colour selection bar at the bottom of that pop up box to either side of where it is until the offending colour is banished.

You're not alone there, it's a pile of money. There must be something free which can desaturate selected areas of an image, not familiar with gimp, maybe I'll take a look at the application.

All the best
