My 30 second try, not as good as Wendy. Shame that they weren't happier, would have made a better picture.
Things is, this is the happiest I've ever seem them. I think this was taken in 1968 or 69. My grandmother (seated) passed away in 69.

I worked on them and did the best I could without spending hours on them.
Thanks Wendy. You did a great job. I appreciate the effort! I couldn't clean them up anymore then I did. Thanks again! - Jay
Here are a series of old photos from a family album. I touched them up the best I could with what ArcSoft PhotoImpression and PicMonkey but I can't get rid of the yellowing in the background. Any ideas????
Life is complicated, so for this weekend we are going to "KEEP IT SIMPLE SILLY'... For this challenge lets get the attitude of "LESS IS MORE"

Living in PA near DE, I've been to Dover (The Monster Mile) a couple times. It's amazing how steep the track is in the corners.

I did have a chance, years ago, to go to Daytona..it is huge compared to Dover! But Dover does have it's excitement. Been past Pocono and Richmond but never went to a race at either. Didn't follow the circuit last year, hopefully this year, I'll have more time.

Leading lines: When we look at a photo our eye is naturally drawn along lines. By thinking about how you place lines in your composition, you can affect the way we view the image, pulling us into the picture, towards the subject, or on a journey "through" the scene. There are many different types of line - straight, diagonal, curvy, zigzag, radial etc - and each can be used to enhance our photo's composition.
