[FredericBayer]

Filling the white areas is much less of a pain in CS5 with its content-aware fill :-)

[Carmel86Tae]

[alexandramarcelo]

[binananana26]

[SmileyXxMileyXxCyrus]

[bigjhay]

what version is this??? nice work..

[MidwestMex]

nice basics for photo restore. also, what version of Photoshop is this? like 1? lol just playing

[rjnabilene]

All this was done on the original background layer? No adjustment layers or masks? I'm not saying that you made some improvements, but at the very least this short video doesn't even come close to showing what photoshop is capable of.

[andy86i]

is there a part 2 to this? i love watching these, would be good to see the completed image.

[modernbuys]

This has helped me a lot. Thank you. :)

When you convert to greyscale, you actually lose some, often, valuable image information that can be used for sharpness or contrast definition later on. You can either Desaturate or add a Gradient Map (Black to White) Adjustment Layer. The latter especially, will remove all colors on display but keep the valuable image information. Just a heads-up ;)...

[freetutorials]

Excellent suggestions! Hadn't considered that. Thank you!

[jakms3343]

was better before =-0

[dolphinfreeforever]

excellent job !!!

[gifsoft]

but you destroyed the colours :|, even though nice tut

[freetutorials]

Yes, I actually kept the colors on my original -- but they aren't actual colors. They are pastel coloring that they applied to the photo 50 years ago or so.

I would recommend going B&W and then applying the color as a light overlay. [I have another tutorial that talks about that.]

[gifsoft]

cool, i'll cheak it later : ) thx

[welshdragon2008]

can i ask you something?

your grandfather shirt is filthy. Specs of dust, scratches etc.

i have an old pic of my Grandmother when she was a child. Its also so badly damaged it cannot be displayed. Ive had it scanned and ive tried to make thousands upon thousands of specs and scratches dissapear. but still looks awful.

do you want to make a tutorial on how to restore it? if not,, any suggestions on what i could do?

[tekdiveraz]

@gifsoft I would say that fixing it, destroyed the image from an archival workflow standpoint. The flaws, are part of the authenticity. I realize your intent is not archiving, but rather to make an image that looks more akin to a modern day image as far as tonal range per se. The colors of a black and white, are real, and many do wish to preserve this tonality.

[HeadOnCollisionx]

very nice, thanks for the help :]
