How can I soften or darken an image.

[jpaulNotAvailable]

Hello, i'm trying to achieve something, and i'm having hard time at it. here's the prob. i have a grass texture, and to my taste some areas of the texture are too 'chlorophyllian'. in some locations, the leaves are too green, and too bright. so my question is how would you do to make the whole stuff more uniform, and less bright. i tried some saturation and contrast combinations, but none gave me the result i wanted. Thanks
