Description

This is a picture I did about 15 years ago with very basic software, it took quite a few hours to do. It is a photo of my elder brother taken circa 1938, my brother Sonny(James Thomas) was about 14 months old. The man in the pic was a famous pianist of the time, I think he was called Charlie Koones(maybe spelled wrong). My brother was in Manchester Childrens Hospital with TB. The picture along with a story was printed in one of the newspapers of that era. Sonny still has one of the originals and the newspaper article. This copy as you can see was rather damaged to start with. Not the best job I have done but it was the first. Thanks for stopping by for a look and for any commenst you care to make. There are no strangers in the world, Just friends that have not met. Thank you Andrea for the correct spelling he was called Charlie Kunz, born an American, he died and was buried in England.

Very good work with the scratches, Jeff! But to be honest you lost some details from the original image! That is maybe because you tried to adjust the contrast and the tones! I really like old photographs! :)

This takes me back! I used to do this stuff fior a living in the early days of Photoshop before the world and his wife could do it! When I fuirts saw the title I thought it was a chiropractic before/after image which has given me another idea! Thnanks for the memory! Dave
