I originally ran this through Picasa thinking that's about as good as it's going to get. THEN...

I ran the original through Gimp & Neat Image. Looks like I won't be using Picasa. I'll stick with DigiKam (which is so much like Lightroom it ain't funny) for the quick/initial PP and Gimp as the final tweaker. I'm glad I save originals!!

And, after some blending, wrinkle/wart removal, and some USM

Wonderful editing, Gary. And a great picture. :thumbsup:
Great skill here Gary!
Nicely done, Gary. When you consider that GIMP is free, it's amazingly good.
Thanks, y'all. Gimp is my weapon of choice if I can't do it in Digikam. Digikam is amazingly like Lightroom. Both are free. Both have Windows versions.
I have not used GNI but based on your demo, it does the job.
A good software indeed.
