Behind the Scenes 10: Photo Restoration

More photo restoration: removing creases and tears on an old family photograph. This is my dad's mother's mother, Estella Owenby. This restoration took several hours because of the detail work in her face and clothing. Once the restoration was finished, I cropped it and converted it to black and white, but I think I prefer the sepia.

  1. It is so apparent how much work goes into photo restoration! I can't believe how lucky we are to have the technology to be able to change this photo to look like new. I love it!
