Weird Purple Square

[Courtney Goldman]

My father has asked me to do some minor editing to some old photos of his. He doesn't have the time or inclination to get them professionally scanned, so what I have is all I'm gonna get. There's an odd chunk of purple on a handful of the photos, most prominently in this one. Any advice on how to fix that? Thanks!!

It's just the blue channel.  Add a Levels layer to that area, with the black slider on the blue channel in to about 45.

Thanks!!

Hey @Courtney Goldman may I have your permission to include this photo in a little colour-correction class I'm writing?

Would you trade me for entry into that class?
