I also think there is too much Cyan. You need to add red and a fair amount I think, possibly 10 to 15 units of red.

To do this reduce your M and Y amounts equally, that is 30M 30Y or 25m 25Y etcetera.

If you are able too, do a 4 piece ring around on an 8x10" print, then I would do 30M 30Y, 25m 25Y, 20M 25Y then for the last one, do a blue test by doing 35M 25Y.

Yellow changes (for blue) require a greater amount of change (generally) to make a difference. With this single test sheet you should get a very good indication of what the colour correction should be, I hope.

Don't let her grow up too quickly.

Mick.
