I dont think my noise filters have had to work so hard on this one. It could be improved even further but I would never get anything done. Time comsuming business is this

Hi Kali,
          Knowing that others would do you proud with
their excellent photo restorations, I decided to have
a go with the paint brush tools. Hope you do not mind.
This has more to do with painting than restoration. If
you do not like it then please ignore it, but I must
admit it was a nice change for me. Sorry to be selfish.

Tomkin.
