yep that is a great solution! Really fantastic.
I don't understand what the impact of Layer 2 is...i.e. a center blurred black circle...but once I created that as a new layer and put it in the same order you had in the Layers box, it worked!!
Thanks so much for your tenacity.
I was also able to get some other very interesting options to use but I think this is the best (i.e. same as you).
Do I need to mark [solved] or anything?
