In memory of Grempy. Restoration of old, deteriorated photograph taken by my brother Walter. Got kinda carried away with the restoration of the photo and this is what happened :-)
Ok, think about this... the restoration was done way back in 1995! Yup. That was before Pentium processors even. So, what you may just go 'ahhh so what' to today because everyone uses computers to do graphics these days, this image was created before hardly anyone ever considered such blasphemy!
[Grempy's Wings took 2nd place in CompuServe's Photography Contest, and netted me a brand new Minolta 3xi, and has appeared in numerous publications.]
