Hi George!

Thanks for the suggestion.

The original jpeg (from RAW) had more detail in the full sized image, but
seemed to lose it when the size was reduced.

I've lowered the saturation and behold!  Just as you said, the detail (or,
at least some of it) was restored.

For comparisons,  here's the original

and here is the reduced saturation version.

I think I like the second version better. Rose likes the fully saturated
one, so....

Thanks, once again, for the pointer, and for taking the time to look and
comment.  :-)

Cheers!
