Thank you for your thought, I do appreciate you're taking the time. I also do not like using flash unless pushed for the same reasons, plus the 'liquid eye' effect. I tried your A priority suggestion, but (and perhaps I misunderstood something) the results were not so good. Here are two shots...

I woke up grumpy and I'm not over it yet

Fiery skipper
