Nuggetty Goodness

"Ma'am, I think we have a problem. This is a still from some footage captured by Midge Ourney. You know that Nat Geo photographer who's on shooting on location in Jebil park for the next three weeks."

"Is this some kind of joke?"

"No Ma'am. We've got multiple reliable corroborating witnesses. Quite a few of them are park rangers."

"But that's impossible! Even with climate change. It's got to be a hoax."

"Yes, that's what I thought too. But last night, one of our best people sent me this. They spotted this woman in Toual el-Hadhali and managed to snap a photo. Don't worry, they weren't spotted

"And you're sure this isn't a coincidence? Maybe some kids were having one of those dress-up party things, what do they call it, co-playing?"

"Afraid not."

"All right, thank you. Looks like we have a situation here. Just when things were finally starting to calm down too."

...but I was never that good anyway. Oh wells!

This is actually GFPGAN - for some reason the Colab page seems to be titled differently. GFPGAN is for face restoration.

Midjourney + light retouching

Midjourney isn't great at noses, so that was where the retouching was needed. Very simple job of masking the original nose with the retouched nose.
