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.   

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.
