Hello everyone, I've been away over the weekend, so been a bit quiet here but I'm back home now. Some nice work done again, thanks everyone. Nice smoothout job Hippy, I'm going to make that one circular about where your smoothing tool finished up and keep that one, I love the lights shining in Dorothea's eyes, so alive in the picture.
And thanks to you again Carolyn, I guess the dad's got another suprise coming to him soon ^_^, you are a master of color, subtil, not over done. To the others who had a go, thanks to you as well though I probably won't be using them all. Please don't feel slighted, we all are learning retouching skills and all at different levels of ability including myself, there's no way I could come near what some of you do in my own efforts in retouching photographs.
I've saved one of yours as well Irene. Thanks

Whoops, I screwed up big time, I attributed some of the work done on the photo to the wrong person   ::) I received your email this evening. So sorry Carolyn, and hope I didn't offend you to much. That won't happen again. I'll be more careful in future.

Just for the record Kevin...I am not a "Learner"..I have been restoring photos for four and half years...I don't use external filters I hand clean them and always try to retain some age to the photo...All down to personal choice I guess ::)...You can never know what people want from a restore...some like them to look new...others prefer them to retain that aged look!...Off to polish my crystal ball now.
