FIXING MY OLD PICTURES

By William C.

I found this old picture in my mom ' s basemet in a red square tin a long time ago. My mama was gonna throw it in the garbage until I wanted to keep it Then a couple weeks ago, Jimmy the guy said that since the picture is torn, ripped, and raggety, it's gonna take a while to make it better. I could make the picture better. The picture was all raggety. It was all old and torn.

We scanned it. We put it on the computer. We started off using the healing tool brush to get the spots out Once I got the stains and tears out, the one picture was ready to make a bunch of copies.

The second picture needs a little bit more work. Not this coming Saturday but the next Saturday, I would like to work on it for a couple hours to get the white marks out For the white marks, I'm using the feather tool That gets the white marks out When I try to do it with the healing tool brush to get the white marks out, for about 15 or 20 minutes, something caught my eye and said, "This is not coming out." And that was the healing tool brush to get the white marks out, but when I used the feather tool brush, it got it out pretty well.

I did it totally independent on my own.
