Hi Guys

I'm new here!

I read about the good work you do and was hoping you could help me as well.


Attached is a photo of me - I was wondering if you could straighten the image a bit and remove the door from the background.


I need this photo for a job interview and instead of using a plain mugshot, would like to use this picture from a wedding (sorry about the resolution).

Many thanks in advance!!
Rahul.

My advice take or look for another picture, a low resolution, black&white and with a smoking picture i think it's not the best for a job interwiew, it's a bit weird being honest.

Hi psycryptor

I gave it a plain white background and cropped the image a little bit.
I am not sure how you want it to be straitened. You are standing at a natural pose.

Here is my try. I agree if you can get a better original would be best and maybe in color too yet if that is not an option for you, here is one where I took out the door, tried my best at sharpening, and a little dodging to lighten up around your eyes. Also create a new background and straightened you out per your request.

Hope this is helpfull

Yeah, Argos, I wish i had a better picture. It's actually a very deep zoom of a larger picture - some more amateur filters from Picasa have made it all the more distorted. Will only be using it as a small image in the CV - I'm submitting a proper headshot anyways so this is just a little fluff in the boring 'ol CV. Thanks!!
