Is there anyway to remove lens flare from an image? (w/ pic)

That particular flare is pretty mild. You can clone over the sky easy cause it's just blue. Try selecting the trees and upping the contrast and saturation a little. Use a pretty good soft edge on your selection and I think it can pass for normal.
 
Lots of ways, I'm sure. How about putting a circular gradient mask on the area in question and then trying Photoshop's color-matching function?

I fooled with it for about forty seconds and got this using the technique I described above.


Wow, excellent job... Did you use the technique you talked about above?

Bravo, trygve... I was about to propose something similar, but yours is the simplest suggestion.

Thanks! I tried it, but I got even better results by using the same mask and simply bringing up the black threshold, which is even simpler--figure a whole five seconds of work, there, or one more step (let's say eight seconds) if you want to flatten the center of the mask a bit.
