Mainly just messed around with color balance - yellow to blue in the midtones seemed to help. Used a skintone (bruce's)overlay at 31% opacity. Overlayed selected areas with white (ie. shirt, necklace) to brighten it up a little. Changed frame color to grey to go with the new colors. Basically spent most of the time correcting my own coloring errors (ie. oversaturated colors, too much of this or that...) Ugh!  I think the skin tone could be a bit warmer, but learning and having a lot of fun...

Nancy,
I think this is your best post yet. You've kept a really nice tonal range, but if I can make one suggestion it would be to use levels or curves to pick black and white points to remove much of the blue/cyan color cast(at least that is what I am seeing). For black, try where his tie meets his jacket. For white, the collar.
Chuck

Thanks for the tip, Chuck - I'm on a learning 'curve' now (bad joke!) I didn't realize how much control I could get with curves, so I'm going to play around with that now. Thanks again for the suggestion. This really is a wonderful forum.
