Leiras Family in Portugal - Requesting Restoration
« on: Wednesday 28 December 16 14:37 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone,

I would really appreciate it if someone could restore a picture from the Leiras family in Barcelos, Portugal, taken in the 1930s.

Cheers

Amazing work!

@Handypandy: Did you post another version early? I am almost certain I saw a version that is different from that one you posted last. If so, can you please post it again as well?

@ymfoster: I really love the detail that you were able to preserve from the original picture!

Thank you both!  :)

I do have a tendency to overcook :) And sometimes when I have been working and staring at a photo for maybe two hours or more, the result on the web page compared with the 'worbench'  disappoints me. The secret, which I have yet to master, is knowing when enough is enough. Yvonne's version is as good as it gets in my opinion.
