Hello. Due to the death of my grandfather recently, I have gotten a hold of some old photographs. I have been doing some work on them. I thought I would post an example here of one I have been working on. There are 2 links below - the 1st one is before. The 2nd one is after. I used Ulead PhotoImpact to remove some tiny black dots.

Welcome to Retouch Pro. Sorry about your loss. The photo is a nice legacy depicting his life.
You did a very good job with the photo. I think it's a great photo and I like how the names give a personal feel to the photo. Makes you want to jump back in time and see how they lived.

Hi Scw 1217,

I am sorry for the loss of your Grandfather. My favorite childhood memories are of those times spent with my grandfather. You did a good job on that picture and it is such an interesting one. Guys and their dogs! I loved it.

Sorry for the loss of your grandfather. That is a great photo, and it seems to be in fairly good shape. I visited your website for a short time, and I was very impressed with your work. The black and white photos are excellent, but I didn't have a lot of time to check out all the others. It's for sure, I will return. Glad to have you on the site.

What a great photo. It looks like you put a LOT of work into that, and it turned out great. How did you go about removing all those dots?

Hey Suzanne,

Glad you found your way over to retouch, were any of the people in the photo your grandfather?

Thanks everyone for the comments. No, my grandfather is not in this photograph. This photo was before his time even.

Here is a photo of him that still needs some work (though I do have better ones). He was in a Model A Ford at about 1930.

BTW, I removed the dots using Ulead PhotoImpact 6. I zoomed way in and took my time.
