Clean and colour for Emma Black please
« on: Monday 24 April 17 18:32 BST (UK) »
Hi friends,

I would really appreciate a clean and possible colour of this photo of my grandma's aunt, Emma Black.

I have been sent it by email, so I hope the scan is good enough.

Thanks for looking!

Judy  :D
Best wishes, Judy :-))

I've tried to maintain sharpness as much as possible. Colouring is not my strong point! So, if anyone wishes to use it as a basis for colouring - feel free.

Here one with some color. Added subtle effects and left some damaged areas. So it has become more of a digital painting than restoration.

Edit: will work on another version this eveening, so's I would actually be presenting you a restored photo.
If a task is once begun never leave it till it's done. Be the labor great or small, do it well or not at all.

and another.
Restorers : Please do not use my restorations without asking my permission first. Thanks.

Good quality size scans will mean much better restores >> hint hint :-)
