Retouch Practice

Colorado Springs, CO

Retouch Practice

I realize that this shot artistically speaking is nothing to write home about, although … come to think if it … I did send a copy home to my Sister (who is the subject).

It rates a PaD post because I’ve spent much of the day practicing restoring old photos; a task that takes attention to detail and patience … neither of which is my strong suit.

Well hopefully my teacher, Professor Barry at Palomar College, will be okay with this one.

You ARE going to post a gallery of all of these aren't you??

you're obviously being too modest ( a nice talent) cuz if nothing else, that is EXACTLY what you DO do . . pay attention & see detail.

Have you gotten yourself a Wacom tablet yet? It comes in real handy for work like this.

Great work Robin... I would say it is definately something to write home about.

This is very well done, Robin. I have many that I would like to retouch if I had the skills.
