Chapter 10. How Digital Retouching Rescues Family Heirlooms

How Digital Retouching Rescues Family Heirlooms

A photograph never grows old. You and I change, people change all through the months and years, but a photograph always remains the same.

That is why I think a photograph can be kind.

Albert Einstein
