Thanks Tommy. I used Topaz AI Clear as the final step in processing. I like it so much that I've begun using it on almost every image.
Been thinking I need to explore other processing programs besides PSE - that is one I've read about on a couple occasions so maybe I need to bite the bullet and jump into the dreaded learning curve. Thank you!

Very nice shot. Honeysuckle always reminds me of a friend who went to an all male college back in the 50's. He talked about whenever walking near honeysuckle vines he was reminded of his girlfriend because of the sweet smell. Evidently the flowering vine was in many locations throughout the campus.

Yes it does. Hyper-focal focusing?

Don't see many of these on here, thank you for the colorful photos.

Yes, looking "in download" the image is even more stunning!

Great image, nice to see you have such a good example to follow!

Give a camera to someone and THEY are the expert. Case in point is a first cousin old enough to know better (61) jumped in front of me as I was snapping a possible keepsake close-up shot of the birthday girl - I had been asked by the family to photograph the event, not him!

Any gimbal head w/long plate adds to the ease of balancing and enjoyment when using my 12 pound camera/lens rig!

...which uses local franchises for delivery.
There's the fly in the ointment around here. Watching the tracking stop points sometimes I see my packages travel through all sorts of out of the way places and even one time saw it spend the night in a residential area after going down the street one block away past my address. Also I don't pay much attention to the note, "will be delivered by 8 p.m.". Sometimes the tracking info will just stop at random times in the evening. One occasion I walked out when the tracking info showed the package was out front of this building to find a personal vehicle driver unloading packages onto the sidewalk. I watched until she started putting them back and walked over to where she was. She was muttering something along the lines, "it was here when I left". Anyway - long story short - Amazon sent another item at a higher price because the first item was the last in their inventory of that item. They did credit my account for $20 to be applied to a later purchase after I complained...

Most likely the artist outside for a smoke. Very nice photo, thank you.

To me the composition is outstanding. The stalks to the left compliment the grasshopper's image in the pretty flower.

Wow, 15 story tripod! There are several years worth of interesting photos there before you, evolving over time too.

Well ghee whizz...should have known!
The harness will be here the second week of June giving me time to get the other parts together.
Yeah, kindred spirits - read where you use a focusing rail to balance the loads. Have two of them in use for the same reason.
