Default Foot- what to do?

I took this photo of a friend and her family awhile ago(yes they do have faces, but one of them is a well known NZer so can't post the full shot), it's not the best capture in the world by a long shot (I've learnt so much since then) but she thinks it's great and wants to blow it up and frame it! One of the problems is THAT foot on the left and what to do with it. I'm fairly new to Photoshop, could you suggest what I could do to adjust it to lessen it's impact please. I have PE9. Also the photo seems to have a pink hue, what is the best way to fix that. Thanks for any and all suggestions.

What exactly is wrong with foot on the left? You mean not being in the light as the others, looks out of place to you?

Well that gives me hope! I though it stood out like a, well......sore toe! She's tucked the toes under, it's her left one not the far left foot.

I did say probably and in this case I was wrong. Looks like she is just relaxing though, nothing I would be concerned about. I'm hoping others would chime in though.

you can select with the lasso tool the right foot of the other bare foot of the third person , put it in another layer, go to transform and flip horizontally. align it with the foot that you want covered. with layer mask, you can remove the excess bg (portions of the denim pants) then use the clone tool to cover the heel. blur with the blur tool portions of the foot to smoothen.

Thanks so much edbayani, here's my attempt.............looks pretty good eh? Until you count the toes! I didn't notice until I was nearly ready to send it off to them. Then something made me check the toe count. Now that would have been a faux paux.
