I chose this picture instead of the other one because I wanted something a little more challenging and diverse. The other picture was just of a simple portrait of a man, which is still a lovely picture, but I wanted to try this one and I think I did an okay job.
The easiest part was probably the grass and the shrubs, along with other sections of the background. It was easier because there was not a lot of detail to be be done or mess up. The most challenging part was most likely the section of the house that was gone in the upper left corner. As you can notice, I accidentally cut off the window a bit, and it was also slightly difficult to get a texture that looked right.
I have never restored a photo before, but I enjoyed doing it and found it entertaining, although a little tedious. I probably wouldn't want to do this as a job, because I would stress and worry that I wasn't restoring it to its fullest potential, and that i would blot out an important detail like the window in this example. Restoring photos for fun or for personal use though, is something I would definitely consider doing again, and I am glad that now I know how to.
