Restoration of Papa

For way too long I have been working on this restoration of my papa. This severely damaged, tiny little photo moved me. I fell in love!

I have devoted many many hours bringing it back to new and I am so happy to say that I have finally finished. I look forward now to sharing it with all of you, the world, but most importantly my family.

Family: if you are reading this and seeing it, thats great! but sshhh...its a surprise for everyone else!

All the rest of you: Please let me know what you think. If you or your family members need restoration work done feel free to contact me! I think restored photos are one of the greatest gifts you can give or get.

ENJOY!
