Best way to clean up effects of ageing wood?

[speters]

I have photo of a pier that I need to clean up just so that it doesn't look so old. So that means getting rid of the color and tone variation on the white railing and also the blanks of wood on the pier. I was able to get rid of most of the color variation by using some lab tweaks. I then tried a select color range and selected the darker tones on the railing and was able to get it to look ok. They don't want me to actually go back in an repaint the pier, it's not suppose to be brand new, but it needs to look better than it does. So any thoughts o the best, fastest way to do this?
