I'm not sure how much you did wrong when you shot, but it appears you didn't work on the RAW conversion very much. Turn the hue dial to get rid of that green, adjust the light temperature a bit and increase the exposure until you push a couple highlights close to the end of the histogram. Then reset the brightness and contrast. It should look just fine. Paul
