Yes of course, I have uploaded the two last versions
Slobodan sent me to my blog, and then the two firsts
photographs are the photograhs adjusted by Slobodan
and the following two photographs are the same
photographs with the original adjustment (please click
on thumbnails for the full size image):

All the best

To my eye, and on my monitor, which is not really
calibrated, the first two images look overcorrected and the
third about right. The later images are somewhat blue but
the light on the forground objects in all appear to be
lighted mainly by skylight or a combination of skylight with
a little warmer light reflected from clouds. The backgrounds
are lighted with direct late afternoon sunlight and appear
slightly yellow. I suppose one could make all this look the
same with a lot of work in Photoshop but I don't think it
would be an improvement. The blue cast is not excessive. If
you correct the images as a whole you must decide on what is
to be reference white. No matter what you choose something
else will look wrong.
In life the eye continuously adapts for color. Its easy
to demonstrate this to your self. Just look through a camera
filter for a minute or two and then look without it. I have
also had the experience of having my eyes mis-matched, for
instance, when hiking in the late afternoon with the sun on
one side. The eye on the sun side becomes quite blue. It
takes a minute of two for this to wear off.
If the third image is un-retouched I would just leave it
alone, it looks fine.
