I actually made a luminosity mask and by mistake hit the wrong selection
to subtract the mask instead of adding it. It made a better image. I
would like to tell you that it was my great artistic and computer
knowledge that made it better, but I can't.

It is said that when King George heard the Hallelujah course from
Handel's Messiah he stood up in reverence. There is another story that
he was heard of hearing and stood up because he thought that it was the
national anthem. I have a tendency to believe the latter story.
