[Gimp-user] Fix photo with uneven exposure

[billlee <forums gimpusers com>]

I hurriedly photographed the text in a greeting card and have uneven lighting
and underexposure that I'd like to correct. Please see attachment, in which I've
increased the brightness and contrast and then desaturated. This helps but it
needs lots more!

I've looked at tutorials on gradient contrast masks but I get lost part way
through. Either I'm too much of a newbie to understand (highly probable) or
maybe the tutorials are for older versions of GIMP. (I'm on 2.8.6 for Windows.)

I am very grateful for any advice anyone would care to offer!!!

Bill
