I have experimented with combining the following routines for removing numerous dust-specks from scans of (ancient home-developed black&white) films:
1. select the area to be cleaned with "<intelligent scissors|Bezier curves>"; use "quickmask" to make the selected area easier to encapsulate; and 2. use "selective Gaussian blur" to merge the dust-specks into the background. Based on my experiments, these routines appear to be incompatible. If I use the "Bezier curves" with "quickmask", then - "selective Gaussian blur" either does not work at all or works but blurs the whole picture. In the absence of "quickmask", "Bezier curves+selective Gaussian blur" work adequately. If there is a more elegant solution to my problem, I would be grateful to be told.
