Hello,


I have here this old photo, of my great-grandmother with her children, which I would like to restore, as well as possible. Me as a basic Photoshop user tried things as playing with contrast, curves etc, didn't help that much. Could someone help me with this? I know the photo isn't that good but it is the real condition of the original photo I have in the photobook.

And second, what is the best way to upload a original size photo? I noticed it is a bit smaller than my original file.

Thank you JJLAPIN, good start! Pity that the picture itself is not very sharp and lost much detail...

I went about as far as I can go Westland, still a problem area on the boys face that was so badly discolored but I did the best I could...... Maybe someone else can do better with him

Thanks for taking your time to restore it. I don't want to be sound rude, but I don't like those fake faces. I rather see a restored version without really chancing the photo, if you know what I mean, it's hard to explain.

But I really appreciate your work and your time, specially cause it's free.

It was close to midnight when I posted the above and just realised I posted the wrong saved copy...this is the one I meant to post the black and white over- lay edition that was over the top of that above clean up copy. My apologies
