Restoration to it's finest



Before

After

This project was very fun and exciting. I always liked how people restored photos but I never knew how they did them. Once I got the hang of photoshop, it became very easy. The trickiest part of the project was zooming in and finding all of the little holes and smudges that should be photoshoped. 
I used tools on photoshop such as lasso, brush, spot healing brush and stamp. Each of these tools allowed me to alter the picture to make it look original. One of the things I struggled with a lot was the green part by her head. I have no idea what that is or if it should be altered. Other than that, the project was a blast and now I can alter my own photos from decades ago.

  1. I can see that this project took a lot of effort. Finding the correct shades of the missing holes in the original piece must have been a challenge. The restored version looks much smoother and more fresh. Good job!
