Hello from northern California!

[Geoff with a G]

Hello OPR family!  I just joined, after hearing about this fine org from my wife.  I got started dabbling in photo restoration several years ago, when scanning and restoring my own family's photo albums so that all family members could have them.  Since then I've turned the scanning and restoration into an ongoing fundraiser for the Alzheimer's Association.  I'm retired, so I have a lot of time to commit to my new "hobby".
I'm really looking forward to applying my time and evolving skills to benefit those served by OPR.

Welcome to OPR from Kansas. It's great to see you are putting your photo restoration skills to good use for you and your family. It is also commendable that you are using your scanning/restoration into an ongoing fundraiser for the the Alzheimer's Association. However, please remember to keep OPR separate from any of your fundraisers by using examples of your work for us for self promotion.

Thanks for joining and I think you will find the Forum is a great place to increase your skills and have fun meeting some great people.

Hi Geoff and welcome from Michigan.  I first learned about OPR after my attempts to restore family photos and slides lead me to Katrin Eismann's book Photoshop Restoration and Retouching third edition and I saw her comments regarding Operation Photo Rescue.

I hope you will enjoy working with us.
