Photo Restoration 1 of 2

This was my first time doing this type of photoshop work – photo restoration. But, I think it turned out really good all considering. I decided to tackle this type of project mainly because I’m preparing to go to Photoshop World and enter into the Guru Competition. I realize I probably won’t qualify in the competition, but the possibility that I might certainly encouraged me to put my best foot forward in pulling this off as a newbie.
