Well I just downloaded this photo and was taking a look at it.  The top background is dark.  Is that artifact? or is it that the darkness represents shade from an awning or something?

Thanks.  :wnw:

I would think shade. It comes down further on the windows, like shade would.

Agree with Kiska. Look forward to seeing your work. Good luck.

Thanks.  I'll post an update.  Lots of messed up bricks among other things.

Oh my, you're right. Those bricks will be fun  ::)

Well I went with the awning causing shade on the wall and window.  Using levels on each channel initially brought back a lot of color.  Here is where I am now.

Phil, great job on the repair and on the color correction. I'm good but wondered if there was more of a red cast. However, if this is out in the sun, it may be spot on. Just to tone it down a little, I used the gray dropper in Curves on the cement between the bricks on the left side.
