Photo Restoration Basics

It is a nice course to start learning Photoshop. It might be to basic for experienced users. Some parts are a little bit hard to figure out what you are supposed to do?

Begining Class for Photo Restoration

Good class information - needs examples of photography to illustrate points. More involvement with the attributes of Photoshop and differences between other retouch/photo management choices. I am a professional, and have used Photoshop for years, but this was interesting. Hope for better in more advanced classes.

more advanced restoration

The course is a very good beginning. I need more advanced help, like sharpening and dealing with very old photos where greys have changed to slightly reflective silver. I'd like to be able to restore these better without sending them to a professional.
