Sure thing Paul.

Very quickly in PS navigate to Image | Adjustments | Channel Mixer
(have your histogram showing on screen with all three channels showing)
I adjusted the settings to (only a quick edit):

Red Ch: R=100, G=16, B=18 Constant = -2
Grn Ch: R=0 , G=100, B=0, Constant = -7
Blu Ch: R=0, G=0, B=100, Constant = -8

Basically I tweak the constants and slight adjustment in the red channel to bring the histogram back nicely to a balanced curve.

Try it and adjust it to suit and once you add more data it will boost the colour saturation too.

(I'd say using the BB filter has shifted the colours)
