Open the image in Affinity Photo and apply inPainting and Patch tools to remove all of the damage eg water marks, tears etc.develop it, add contrast, apply tone curves etc. Apply additional ON1 tools to the image as required, e.g.Apply the ON1 NoNoise plugin and process.Import the base image into ON1 PhotoRAW 2022.With the image returned, apply inPainting and Patch tools to the image to remove the damageĪnother approach, and the one I used here, was as follows:.develop it, add contrast, apply tone curves etc and then return it to Affinity Photo Send the image to the ON1 NoNoise plugin and process.Add the base image as a layer in Affinity Photo, duplicate this.For example, one approach could be as follows: There are a number of start points and tools you could use for a project like this. Problems such as water damage, blemishes, marks and tears on the photo are somewhat easier to fix and don’t present as much of a challenge although some care is needed. Soft images, ie very slightly out of focus fare better and here you can work minor miracles. A significantly out of focus photo will still be an out of focus photo at the end of the process although it’s possible to add in some detail and to sharpen it a little without it becoming too grotesque. The first thing to say is that while the sofware available today is amazingly capable, it isn’t a magic wand that you can wave to fix everything. Let’s first inject some realism – you can’t save every photo! That being said, there’s enough here to work with and having some pretty handy post-processing available to me projects such as one are definately worth the effort. Languishing in a shoe box for close to 70 years, it’s faded, water marked and generally in pretty poor condition.
