Thanks. As you may recall, I have been procrastinating about learning
to do masking for several years. I went back to the tif image, which is
better than what you had, and found that I could do better with the
tools that I have been using. Sometimes I don't explore until I am
forced to do that.
I must admit that you are "the Master of the Mask" .

Thanks, Moose. I agree, your mod looks much better. I know that I
can't duplicate your changes in total, but are there specific changes
that you made that I might add to my repertoire?
Well, I was doing it after the fact. I, of course, masked and treated
different areas differently. (I know, I know, AG, so old fashioned.)
so taking you through what I did isn't a help.
I would have to see the straight Raw conversion to see what would be
"right" to do to it in the first place.
I agree, I was frustrated with the way this came out in post, which
led me to go to B&W. It was shot in the large area of the airport
terminal, which has a combination of window light and some sort of
fluorescent fixtures.
Tricky stuff. I'm not familiar with the tools for masking, brushing
effects in, etc. that you have in Picture Window Pro for areas with
different lighting.
The product info page says:
"Masking & Composite Images
* Extensive tools for creating masks (selections)
* Use of masks to control application of most transformations
* Full support for composite images with precise alignment, rotation,
scaling, and perspective control of overlay image"
If that's true in a useful way, you should be able to process
different parts of the image for the different lighting, which is what
I've done.
