Thanks!

I notice that on this post the "white" on her dress looks almost to match the background.  It looks more white on my computer so I don't know what to think about that.

What a cute image :-)!

I think it looks wonderful besides her hair that seems a little green still (now even more than before). I'd remove some green and maybe add a little yellow to it instead.

Thank you Jonas

Hi Pat,

Lovely restore, the levels in Olin Mills portraits are always so hard to correct!
I think you are right about the white on baby's dress, it could use a little more "pop"?

Here's what I tried:
selective color adjustment layer  -  reds: cyan -28, magenta +15, yelllow  -34
hue/saturation adj. layer:  -  yellow: hue -10 (mask to only show in hair)
another sel. color adjustement layer  -  whites:  black -6

You can vary any of these settings with the opacity slider.

Hannie I tried your fix and it works beautifully.  Just what I needed.  Thank you so much!

Pat, this looks great and Hannie; I have got to do more with the selective color adjustment layer. Love the final results!
