look for the open format of your camera (i.e. raw) and use it.

im sure you'll get more options to play with the colors of your picture.

there are many ways to adjust image color in photoshop

this answer refers photoshop 6.5 or above 

open your image with photoshop and try one (or combination of) the following:

from the menus choose

1. image> adjustments> levels  

2. image> adjustments> color balnce

3. image> adjustments> hue/saturation

every one of those will open up plate to lets you control and change the colors
