Bit of advice wanted. I know the little arrows in the screen top right indicates clipping of highlights or shadow but is the particular colour, in this case cyan, significant and how do you correct? Sorry if it's basic stuff.

First thing to identify what's being clipped. In this case it appears to be specular highlights in the chrome. Normally I wouldn't worry about this as there wouldn't be any detail there anyway. However lets suppose its something more important. First thing you could do is slightly reduce the overall exposure. That will probably cure the problem. However it will make the overall picture a little darker. something you don't want. In that case you need simply to go to curves adjustment tab and use the highlight slider to slightly reduce the highlight settings until the red areas disappear.

You might want to nip over to the Adobe web site and check out some of their free Photoshop tutorials
