Okay so I got your attention... LOL Any thoughts on where to go with these feet? This one is taking way too long, doesn't help to have a sinus cold and not be able to concentrate on what I am doing.

I have been on the lookout for your post all day so don't get cheeky with me!  (just kidding Gary!)

Great clean up!  I think your feet look good too and all they need is just a little bit of shading.

I have one pick and that is the levels on your restore, I'm wondering how you get the reddish result?  I've done a levels adjustment in the separate R, G and B channels and this is what I get.  Do you use a different method or do you up the saturation? 

Hope you'll get rid of that cold soon!

I use the same levels method you mentioned so it may just be my eyes and or monitor.  I'll clean up the feet some more and then do a final adjustment before sending home.

Gary, I doubt if it is your eyes!  When you use the Handbook method of levels adjustment you rely more on the the graphics then on your eyes.

I think it may be your monitor but then my version of levels should appear really washed out to you?

Gary, I agree with Hannie that your photo is way too red on the people. Are you doing a Hue/Saturation also?

Oo iteration, you're right up there with Glenna.  She too, loves words.  Such marvelous things!!   

Love the pic.  It is better without the red.

Gary, that is looking great. :up: I copied it and toned down the lady in the middle's feet, added some shading to the girl's jumper and the two guy's legs/trousers/shorts.  Only minor stuff on a great restore.
