Hi Marc, yes 16 bit workflow - but as mentioned above - the bold colour shifts with selective colour layer appear to be the root cause. I've posted a very basic reprocess below - just assembling the 3 channels and some colour tweaks but not much else. I'll have to find a method to get the colour I want with a less aggressive approach. Interesting - thanks again for your input - I'm reasonably confident of a sharper final result forthcoming.

Ah huh! there you go, much better....now the colours can be tweaked again without bringing back the former posterised appearance...nice work
