Photograph Restoration
« on: Monday 26 September 05 09:48 BST (UK) »
I have been sent some photo's by email, they are in pretty poor condition. I have tried to restore them myself but am not very good at it.
Would love to see what you can do with them if you would be so kind.
Will post them one at a time.
Thank you.
Mary.

Just fixed his tie and tweaked the colour a bit.

I concentrated more on the damage, reduced the noise slightly, and slightly sharpened. Kept it on the darker side so as not to emphasise noise and obvious fixes.

I'm really pleased with this one, have tryed a few times to improve it myself, but when I printed it out it was very pale and washed out.
Thank you all very much for all you've done.
