Chris, your reply has helped me calibrate my expectations, which is probably more important than anything.
I assume by your statement, "I have fused the images with your parameters and the result looks convincing (to me)." you got the same result as the fused sample I posted previously. I am quite happy with it, especially if the alternative is increased contrast in the floor and popcorn ceiling. I will experiment with your suggestions so I can learn more about the available tools. Thank you VERY much for helping.
