    Interesting. I didn't go for a full on repair, because I liked the slightly tattered look. So I kept some of it and just repaired around it. We've all approached this very differently so far!

    Would you believe the exact thing occurred to me when I was doing it! The ocd took over though and I've never done an old photo before so I wanted to see how far it could be taken, too far as it happens, even with the fake photo border and drop shadow it isn't as appealing without the marks of time.

    Ok, will post it here so. As I said, I tried to keep the tattered look, as opposed to losing it. I quite like what it adds to the photo. Here was my attempt:

    That just takes it to another level, seriously impressed I'd have to spend time just thinking about how to approach doing that!
    Edit, ok masking for starters...

    Not sure beyond what's been posted in the last couple of pages. Anyone else still working on the image? Or hasn't posted it? On the other hand, if the OP has already chosen what did you go with?
