Photographer: Oldenburgh Photography
Location: Minnesota

My favorite aspect of this photo restoration is the fact that Oldenburgh was able to bring life and focus back into the boys eyes, which gives the viewers eyes a central point to focus on and will help draw the initial attention. I also love how you can see more of the texture on the boys shirt, overalls and hair. The image no longer looks flat since the photo restoration has created a better sense of separation from the boy and the background. Even though this photo isn't a complex one, Oldenburgh was able to add subtle complexity to the after photo by bringing out the shadows and highlights of the boy, which add much more interest than what the before photo had.
