Restoration By Me.

Yeah that's a shitty "restoration". Grain from the original medium isn't something that should be removed.

He didn’t have the ‘stache when I saw Queen in 1978. I still picture him in his skintight white spandex jumper. Iconic. I was spellbound.

Way too heavy on the smudging.

Actually if you see the original file OP used there isn't much texture, just JPG grime, so standard denoising will lead to that look

Right, so you go in by hand and remove the noise dots one by one

Maybe stick to things you know about next time you hit the keyboard, champs

So why are you commenting on it then since you don't know. I'm a photographer, I don't just use filters to do my job for me

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 3

Yeah, of course you took the picture of a young Freddie and somehow the only original version is the crappy JPG above, yeah right

If this is the restoration, what did the original look like?

More of a color temp change than a restoration.

Looks like you decreased light on his face. The original was much brighter

That man looked better with a mustache. He was still pretty ugly... man I miss the days when they let ugly people make music

5 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 17

I mean, Ed Sheeran is pretty popular.

He may have been ugly but he was loved both ways

5 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

They downvoting cause they hate truth's that make them uncomfortable. Ugly STILL make music mate, they just don't get credited on TV

5 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 3

I mean, Ed Sheeran isn't exactly a male supermodel either..

5 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

No but he broke as a cheeky teen, it could have gone either way. I don't think anyone in the industry thought they'd get so much milk out.

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

No I'm pretty sure they're downvoting because it was a needlessly dickish comment from some prick projecting his insecurities

5 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 4

Dunno my dude, I listen to amazing artists all the time who are never gonna get a break cause they look like a brick shithouse.

Nice image. Restoration implies an effort to return to the original state though, and that's pretty far from what I'm seeing here.

5 years ago | Likes 60 Dislikes 25

Yeah, this is: I put it thru one filter, gimme attention.

5 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 21

Given that this is clearly a video still, there has clearly been an effort to improve the quality. Don't be an ass...

First off I started with a compliment. The original is linked elsewhere in the replies and is a bit grainy but much better image. 1/2

5 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 1

Honest feedback gives people a chance to improve if they want. Maybe consider someone's best intentions next time you go off.
