Original 100 year old photo from a family collage.
The hardest part of color restoration is creating realistic flesh tones. After converting to a black+white image I apply photoshop's smart color filter. This gets me close. The rest of the work is hand painted in photoshop and hand cloned.
My first photoshop restoration done manually using the cloning tool. 1997. Faded & Torn Black+White Print Circa 1958
