Photo Restoration
« on: Monday 27 March 06 12:29 BST (UK) »
Hi

A bit of tall order, but was wondering if the attached could be enhanced/repaired in anyway.

Kind regards
Cazza

Here's my left handed (nearly all of us are ;) ) attempt.

The flare in the middle will take a bit of time to get rid of.

I thought my last one there was a bit on the bright side.

This is such a beautiful pose and such a lovely face ... I have kept it in a sepia effect  as I think it suits it ....  Hope you have plenty to choose from .... So many people on here are so talented ....you'll be spoilt for choice ....

Hi Cazza

The dodging and burning is taking a long time as I'm doing various other things :( The main problem is that light has leaked into the camera when the photo was taken. This means that there is very little detail in the 'white' bits.
I've done some corrections but I'm not happy yet.

Here's a little cameo for you
