Restored analog prints

Colorized prints

Back in 2012, I did my very first reportage. After a lab incident, half of my films were chemically burned. A dozen of pictures were still readable, but none of them had usable colours and contrast. I spent nights in my own lab, trying to restore them.

This is the last result I’ve had, after enlarging them on multi-grade paper, to get the contrasts back. Then I digitally restored the color using scanned negatives and the color curves tool.
