I took several pics of some owls up in the trees around my house, I was pointed up into the sky so you could see bright light coming in between the leaves. And I notice that around many of those bright area's is an annoying purple glowing haze like effect. I have three questions, what causes it, what can you do to prevent it from happening while shooting, and finally, can it be fixed (ie removed) post processing?
Here is one of the shots cropped to show the effect:

Purple fringing happens when you have some high contrast lighting. Some lenses have a coating on it that helps to tone down the effect.

It's called Chromatic Aberration, and here is a pretty good description of it:
