PM'd you.

you can use this technique to achieve something close but you'd have to work with it to get it right.

Open your original image in photoshop
Hit Command+U (Ctrl+U on the PC) and you should get the Hue/Saturation Menu
Change the Edit drop down menu from Master to the closest color you want to change
Click on that area with your mouse that it will sample the area. Notice on the H/S menu that you will have a horizontal slider on the bottom that is isolating the color
Slide the Hue slider to change the color of that.

Keep in mind that this is just off of my memory and that you'll need to further isolate the color so that you can get the proper effect and that the hue change doesn't bleed over into the clouds or other objects that your adjusting in the image.

Here's a sample. It's a little grainy due to the high ISO setting.

sometimes grain will give the picture a little more depth...altho grain is ok for color photos, it can give your shots (depends on what) a old fashion photo look. esp, in black n white.

roll through sites like deviantart.com numerous photographers like to use grain in their photos (mainly with models) to give their shots a nostalgic look.
grain in wedding photos as well, in black n white, gives your subject that old fashion look.

shooting areas such as downtown on first friday in max iso, and B/W give it a nice nostalgic look and feel. from my experience, grain on canon and nikon cameras are rather nice. the grain is not packed together like some film, but are spread out evenly and throughly throughout the photo. (kodak 1600 speed film has a nice grain, but also depending on the paper you develop on)
