Copy and paste it to a new layer. In the new layer make a hue/saturation adjustment, select blue from the dropdown list and make it as light as you wish. It's a lens not a lense!

Why do want to lighten it? David: Canon EOS 400D - Canon EF70-300mm f/4-55.6 IS USM -Sigma 17-70 F2.8-4.5 DC Macro - Sigma 50-500 'Bigma' - Speedlite 580EX 11 - Better Beamer

I want to skip a rock on it soooooooo bad. "I'm not immature, my default age limit is set to low."- someone in my head told me to write that.
