How to fix faded colours.

Many photos stored incorrectly are damaged by sunlight.
Direct or even indirect sunlight fades colour prints very quickly. In fact even photos shot in the 2000s!
This example was taken only a few years ago really – in 2003 – but was already so faded, it was hard to see the people. Luckily it was a professional photograph so I knew there was good sharpness hidden under the fading.
MyBigBrag result is very satisfying.

I have had the pleasure of working with Chris from mybigbrag on the Canberra World Peace bell website.
One great creative idea was his combining of the photo of Nara Park with an overlay of a ghostly “fan” design which was the inspiration for Lauren in the architectural design. He also shot our video on “green screen” and superimposed images of our designs behind the model of the proposed gazebo.
