Any suggestions on how to remove it? I tried using the Hue-Saturation tool to desaturate various colors in the area, and it helped some but still left a noticeable spot. I've seen lots of suggestions to use the Clone tool, but I don't think that will work because I want to keep the limb detail behind the spot.

Thanks.

for giving me the right term -- lens flare.

Nah, there's no page to link back to. Also, it's no

problem for you to use the image.

thanks a lot!!!
