Sitting back on a last Sunday afternoon, wondering
what to do… suddenly an idea pops up in your mind
and you decide to take a trip down memory lane. You
initially look at the pictures in your immediate
eye-view and then get down to taking out the old
photographs you’ve carefully stored away. Scanning
through the photo brings back a flood of memories
and emotions, from nostalgia to joy and pride, but
tinged with sorrow and regret when you see your
valuable old photographs in a pathetic worn out
state.
Some of them are dog-eared, while others are torn,
cracked or have lost their brightness and color. So,
what started out as a pleasurable Sunday afternoon
ends up differently after looking at the damaged
memories. Well, there is a solution… Photo
restoration, which is a process that can make your
old yellowed photos look as good as new and even
more restore cracked or torn photos to their
original form.
What’s more, restoring photographs is a process by
which the photograph can even be further enhanced
from its original format. With color enhancement,
cropping, red eye removal and a host of other
digital trickery that can greatly enhance the value
of the photograph.
The following are the various aspects that can be
achieved by the process of photo restoration:
The brightness level
The saturation level
The color level can be corrected, enhanced,
reduced, changed, deleted and even added
Text can be added to the photograph
The photograph can be masked
The photo can be merged with another
The photo can be overlapped with another
Torn photos can be reassembled
Scratches and marks can be erased
Enlargement and reduction of the original image is
possible
The photo can be printed on canvas, paper or even
photographic film
A subject or object can be added or removed
Adjustment of contrast and sharpness
The photo can be given an overall new feel with
the use of the various filters
