This photo is circa 1890's. Finished the restoration using several of Graffi's LAb Actions.

John,
nice restoration but I think seeing the age of the photo that I would add a touch of sepia.

Hi John,

Great Job on the restoration. Sepia added that " aged " look to it.

Kev, Michelle, Andrea, Susan, Smiles, Rob, Norma, Julievive,


Thanks for the input on my restoration. The sepia effect add's a lot to the image. So offen my clients want their restorations in B&W I forget about sepia. Thanks again Kev for the advice.

John, what a great restoration. It looks even better with the sepia, instead of the black and white.
