Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mother's Day. I've been working on a super secret project for my mom. Sort of super secret because she had to bring me the old photos, but she had no idea what I was going to be able to do with them. I am taking a Vintage Photo class. (Wow, it just struck me. I am working on "vintage photos" and I am in them!) Any way, we're learning on to color correct, fix dust spots and get rid of tears and folds. Well....tada!





Here is the original. I am guessing somewhere around 1972. It was our directory picture for First Baptist. Other tidbits about this photo? My mom made both mine and Tammy's dresses. Also, I wore that dress in Little Miss Troy when I won first runner up.


Now, after weeks of work...




I still have one more class. Maybe I'll include a larger one then. (You see, there was this huge piece of the top layer missing from one side of my face. I sure hope we get to advance remediation in that class because the photo look great except for that one spot. I know Photoshop does wonders - we'll see if it can create something from nothing. Figures it's my face.)

Hope you like it, Mother. More coming. I love you.
