Yes, now that you've cranked up the saturation I can see subtle shades
that are not gray. But apart from the clone tool artifacts I don't see
anything that I would describe as "banding". If I crank the saturation
high enough the limitation of 8 bit colors and JPEG encoding starts to
show itself as blocky, squarish patches of color without smooth transitions.
Again, apart from the cloning artifacts I don't see anything I would
consider objectionable.
