I definitely got in over my head when I offered to do this for my mother in law. I'm hoping someone out there can help me. This picture is 27 years old and it has been discolored by the sun. It has a yellow cast over it, and the color is almost non existent.
I've worked with restoring old photos (missing areas, scratches, cracks, etc. on Abode Photoshop 6.0, and now with 7.0, but I have never worked on photos that have been discolored this badly. I am at a total loss here. I don't want to desaturate the photo to remove the color because I'll just be left with a black and white photo, and Iwas hoping to restore the original photo back to it's original color (or try to at least).
Will someone out there let me know where I can even begin? I do know my way around Photoshop, I just need to know how I can begin getting rid of the yellowish cast on this photo.
I had the original photo scanned on a high resolution scitex scan, so the quality is great. The copy I've attached is on a low res.
I hope someone can help me start this project.
Thanks!
