It´s easy to become friends with such a magnificent subject. I was joking about using lightroom to hide things. It´s true that in a way it does, but I like to keep exploring after the painting is done. Pushing the image boundaries in terms of contrast, saturation, etc... and then pulling back. Often I go too far and don´t pull back enough. Probably I should kept painting after pushing contrast, to try to recover some of the lost detail but you have to stop somewhere. :)
