Hey guys. Oldfag here. I have this old photo of me and I kinda like it (I had hair!). But the neg is long since lost and it looks shitty. Can anything be done to make it look a bit cleaner and sharper? Oh and fuck yeah Miami Vice. 80's look FTW (Well apart from the glasses lol).

It's actually a pretty good job considering the input. Fuck you for being a picky dick.

or you could not fuck with the "noise" at all and leave the current sharpness level as it is because it will never show up on print

looking at the picture again, there was no need no run whatever noise reduction he used because there is no noise in the first place, simply clone out the white dots manually and you're done

no it's not. He smudged it to shit and made it even worse. The GRAIN wasn't even an issue it looked fine. All it needs if some cleaning up of the shit and a very slight increase in contrast via curves levels or whatever.

I tried to clean up some of the specks and scratches (though obviously not all) and some color/contrast fiddling.

I posted my own attempt which was bloody awful I might add. I decided to post the original to see if anyone could do better. Here was what I posted btw.

Hmm. Looking at it again even with all the processing and it being smaller res etc. I still think I prefer my effort. You need to do better lol.

Jesus, those of you that took it seriously just destroyed all the detail and left him with nothing.

I could give you some better sharpness with a higher rez scan.
But any work on that from this size would just destroy things.

Too much contrast is not natural for that kind of situation.
Shitty contrast is shitty.
