Wow, Gary's version is fantastic. I've tried similar things in the past and always thought the restoration looked over done. But seeing a job done by somebody else really makes me think twice about my own work. I guess there's something to be said about being your own worst critic eh?

Jon.

Hi ifixpix,

yes, I used Filter > Texture > Texturiser... in PS7. Chose Canvas and used the following settings (these would change with the size of the image you're using) Scaling 100%, Relief 4, light direction top.

Jon, thanks for your kind comments. Had a look at some of your photos (not enough time at present to view them all), nice work.

Thaks for the tip, Gary.
I have not played with filters much, but the masking benefits are intriguing.

Thanks for the idea Gary...even a small amount of texture and noise takes away that overworked look.

You're welcome Butch.

Nice job you've done on the image. Just one minor criticism, her right eye (as we look at it) is slightly out of line, and looks wrong. Needs rotating a little.

I've done a v.quick "correction" on your picture to illustrate, hope you don't mind.

Not at all Gary... funny I did not see that.... I guess it does take a village… You know that is something I have learned to do with my own work. Put it aside and come back a few days or a week later. You see errors you did not see before. Makes for a much better job
