Brightness

This old photo from 1910 belongs to AlexR, and is part of a genealogic research that he is working on. The man portrayed in the photo is AlexR's great grandfather.

AlexR asked us if we could repair the picture for him. He was not very precise in his request because he didn't know exactly what could be done to the image. He wanted only to improve it. So he wrote "I leave it to you to decide what to do."  And sometimes that's enough for us.  

The image had a very poor quality, it was faded and had markings on it. The background was also very ugly.

We started with a "clean-up" of the background. Thereafter the color was changed, and on top we added some filters. That's for the background.

Then we proceeded with the marks in the face, and the strong light on the mans forehead. To get an even color all over the image, we desaturated it; then we added a Sepia toning. Afterwards we improved the brightness, the hue, and the saturation.

Since AlexR didn't give us any instructions about how he wanted the final result, we made two versions so he could choose the one he liked best.

AlexR has also been so kind to allow us to republish the "remake" that we had done with his great grandfather.

Photo Enhancement is a correction and retouching of digital or scanned photos.

Are your photos without brightness and intensity, pale and dull? The color seems washed out?

It is not what you expected it to be, when you took the photo?

These are common problems and occur quiet often, but it is not very serious. Photo Remake transform these dull images into first classed photos that you can enjoy instead of keeping them hidden in the shoebox.

With digital technique we correct the brightness and improve the colors in the photo, i.e. we change the saturation, the hue, the intensity, the contrast, the luminance and the color balance etc.
