David, your time away has done you well, your restore looks great!
Is the groom's tie a little longer in the original photo or does it just seem that way because of the damage?

Beautiful job David. Thumbs up I agree with Hannie on the tie, needs to be a little longer. There also seems to be a bit of staining left around the lady's middle?

Thanks for the nice comments! I'll work to improve the tie and remove the stain (although, I'm not sure I see it). Regards, David

Sorry for the delay, I had a bad spell with major back pain and headaches, but I think I got the corrections you suggested completed, and hope you like it. If everyone is happy, I will send it home. Thanks everyone....

Hi David,

I'm so sorry to hear you were not feeling well, I hope the pain is gone and you're feeling better!
The restore looks great, there is still some room for levels adjustment and then you will be able to see what Tess mentioned earlier about the yellow staining around the waist of the dress.  It is very easy to get rid of with a color layer or the color replacement tool.

Hannie,,,Thanks for the pointers. For some reason I just could not see that. I had used the dodge tool to lighten the area, but your method was better. I think my image looks like yours now. Is it ready to go home???


Regards, David

p.s. I'm getting new computer glasses in a couple of weeks. My old ones are more than two years old. That could be part of my problem.....

Hi David

I hope the fact that you're back to restoring means that you feel better.  Hate those rotten headaches and back problems!  We must find the poofer and make them all begone!  It's good to see you back on the forum.

Hugs!
