The images you'll see are the result
of my studies in photo restoration.
As
Katrin
Eismann, author of the book "Photoshop
, Restoration & Retouching"
wrote to me once, about photo restoration: "It is a labour of love". I
agree with her. For me it's a very special feeling to see the past "come
back" in a restored picture.
As I was trying to figure out a creative and
effective way to show the before/after states of the restoration I came
up with an interesting idea. My friend Rodrigo
Maia,
a brilliant interface specialist and flash programmer put it together
for me. Check it out by clicking on the thumbnails and passing the
mouse over the images. (you might need shockwave
player)
This is an image a friend asked
me to restore. She is the wife
of the young boy on the left, now an old gentleman.
This work is still
in progress .
The
image below presented a diferent chalenge. It came from a small viewer,
very popular in Brazil during the 60's. A workmate handed me the viewer
and asked me if I could rescue a picture of him, a diapositive locked
inside. Click on the thumbnails to see the result.
