    Shiny areas on old photo

    I am working on a pair of old photos that have shiny metallic areas after being scanned. Anyone have a good workflow for removing/repairing this? I also tried to photograph the pictures with the same shiny stuff showing up.

    Thanks so much for any advice you can offer!

        Tape residue on old albumen photo
        by irsayj
        Hi all. I have an old family photo (ca. 1900). It appears to be a large sepia albumen print on heavy card stock.
