mostly true because I didn't understand everything in your post (I'm just a hacker).
But it is closer to original.

For the one above, I used the lasso tool to cut out the babes (making them a separate layer) so that I could process them separate from the background (which was causing problems for several reasons) Then I tried to deaden the background a little. The babe layer then got enhanced contrast, brightness and saturation. For the new one (below), in addition to the above, I tried the auto smart fix (following your lead there - didn't know about it before). That brightened the babes more, but I still couldn't approach yours though in terms of level and contrast.
So we've got five variations - that ought to satisfy most people except I left the stringy white thing alone
thanks!
