My own family photographs from the '40's were a challenge, and the joy I got from bringing them to life again helps me appreciate your response, and led me to do the best I could with your photo. It's gratifying, and if you wondered why we think DPS is "community," it is partly because we'd likely help anyone with their photos, even without a thank you or any recognition. But reading your response means so much more, as a reminder that sometimes the value of the photo is beyond the electronic image, and more than simply an exercise in post-processing.
Thanks for taking the time to personally address the efforts of all the submitters of edits, and let us know if there is anything else DPS can do to make photography more enjoyable for you.
