Hi,
I'm hoping one of you seasoned gurus might have some advice for a rookie LR/PS user
Not sure if here or the PS group would be best. I've got a box of damaged prints. This is a typical example of my Grandad and Grandma. Most of the key features are clean, but I've been trying (and failing) to get a technique for covering up the damaged parts. I tried a healing brush in LR Classic but it struggles with such large areas. Obviously I can soften/blur the image slightly, but not enough to take out the damage.
I've seen some far more knackered photos with creases, water damage, stains restored to a very clean final - so I must be missing some tricks.
Any tips (just technique names that I can google would be very useful) would be very gratefully received
Kind regards, Tim
