I've been taking photos since 1967, when I was 14 years old. I never took any lessons but always enjoyed photography. My Canon FT 35mm camera broke many years ago and I never got it repaired. I sort of slacked off the past years and began using compact digital cameras set to full auto. I recently purchased a DSLR and have regained my interest in photography. I found my old photos and negatives and was bothered by how much they had deteriorated and discolored. I purchased PS Elements and began trying to repair them. I was successful for the most part. I began showing them to my kids and grandkids. To my surprise they seemed to enjoy them. I then showed them around to some of my co-workers and they too seemed to like them. I finally decided to post them online. Hopefully some others might also enjoy them. If not, I still like them.
