Sometimes a single photo is all that exist from the past. Marked by many years of storing and keeping, the damages of the photograph might seem unrepairable.

 The time it takes to restore the photograph varies of the damages, but it lays many hours of detailed computer work to get it into top condition. The final result may be printed and shared with family and relatives and saved for many future years !
