old photo restored
Here is the before and after photo of a child found with a number of old letters written to my great grandmother. This photo was taken around 1900.

John,
That's really good....I take my hat off to you. I've been working for over a year  on an original picture of my late mother and her twin sister taken about 75 years ago which is in really bad condition, mostly crease marks and a bit torn off the top of the photo. I would like to get it finished whilst my aunt is still alive but the truth of the matter is that I find it incredibly boring and difficult - I have a love/hate relationship with the clone tool, and it's mostly hate! I work on it for about 10 mins at a time. Don't hold your breath waiting for me to post a before and after....Bayla

Hi John ...
Oh you did such a good job on that ... putting in a new background and cropping it closer really finished it off. Well done !!  Wendy

John,
great work. I don't have the patience or skill to attempt any as difficult as this must have been. Kev.

Great job John.
Doing a restoration is something I have yet to attempt. I enjoy seeing what everyone has done.

Tina,
Thanks for you kind words. Glad you like the image. My first restoration was on a photo from the 1890's. Once I completed that image I was hooked on the restoration process. John

Great job John! I'd like to see more of your work!
I really like restoring old photo's too! I have a lot of old photo's from the early 1900's I need to get to, so I can never say I have nothing to do. My problem is which one to work on next. The best thing about restoration is that each one is a new challange. Sharon
