Restoration

So, I was given the amazing chance by a cousin of mine to restore this picture. I haven’t attempted photo restoration since I left high school (8 years ago), but I couldn’t turn down the opportunity to dust off a rusty skill.

I don’t normally dabble in photo restoration, but I do love a good challenge, and this definitely was one. One of the biggest challenges in this restoration process was the fact that the legs were completely gone. I was wracking my brain for a good while, trying to come up with a solution. Should I crop the picture? Should I find legs online? What should I do? One day I had an epiphany, and I had to slap myself on the forehead.

“Why don’t you just use your own legs?” I thought to myself, and so that’s what I did.
