a Copepod
here is a copepod image, taking it through the eyepiece makes some side effects (too much blue) and it has to be processed in a way I don't like.

Try the following in Photoshop: -
1. Open the image.
2. Duplicate the image using the "Duplicate" command.
3. Arrange the two images side by side.
4. With the duplicate active, run an average blur (Filter/Blur/Average) on it.
5. Then activate the original image.
6. Add a new layer above the origal background layer.
7. Open the curves dialoge box. This will have three eyedroppers in a row near to the bottom. Clcik on the middle dropper.
8. Then click once on the blurred duplicate file. This should get rid of your colour cast.
9. If there is still a little of the colour cast left, change the layer blending mode from "normal" to "colour".
Works beautifully with your lovely copepod image.
Best wishes,
Peter
