How to repair black and white photos (old photos)

Step 1: Open the original image to remove the color. There are several ways to remove color, directly or through the lab channel. I like the lab channel to delete colors and select images-> Mode->; Lab color, click on the channel panel, only keep the brightness channel, and delete other channels to get the black-and-white photo as shown in the figure.

Step 2, select menu: Picture-> Mode->; RGB color, and then began to repair, use repair tools to remove spots on the face, background and clothes.

Step 3, then use the stamp tool to repair the texture on the face and clothes (the texture produced by the old photo is too long). The opacity is 30% and the flow rate is 40%. Can be set according to personal preference.

Step 4: Now you can see that there is a large area of damage on the hat. At this time, you need to use a smear tool with a strength of 50%. Carefully daub according to the texture, use this tool to smear the defective part completely, and then use a stamp tool to repair it (the settings are the same as before). For the place to be depicted, use the lightening or deepening tool to depict, and the exposure is 10. Such a photo is basically refurbished.
