Lee,
Give this image a test fly...
Sorry for the quality...it is cobbled together fast from two images...both from the same spot just a different exposure for the falls...
Goals: Make the foreground look less green and keep the waterfall as neutral as possible...Blown out parts exempted...
Greg
It's a trap....Kidding...

I've had a go at this too...
I think that this is the first image that I've been able to correct with a single curve!
Before I opened CurveMeister I applied Apple RGB to the file (Edit > Apply Profile), before switching it into sRGB (Edit > Convert to Profile). I chose Apple RGB because I wanted a lighter, and more saturated image.
My Lab curves fixed everything - except for the greenery, which they wreaked (as you'll see if you apply the curve). To get around this I converted the file into Lab (in Photoshop), and used the Blend If sliders to bring back the original greens:
I didn't do much else to the file - a Green channel luminosity blend, and a touch of sharpening, but I used a light touch.

- Blend If: L > This Layer: 0 - 205/234
- Blend If: a > Underlying Layer: 112/115 - 255

Boyd...
Very nice overall...try the very subtle correction in My posted ACV.
If it helps great if not...try to reduce the magenta a bit and see if the overall color looks better.
