Help w/Devastation Trail, Hawaii
Jun 1, 2013 15:33:50 #
took this photo in 1967 on the Big Island, Hawaii, how would you suggest I edit it? I have Photoshop 7 and CorelPro5 (not versed in either) if it's worth it I would like to mount and frame.

I tried to edit your picture using udobe photoshop CS5 Spot healing brush tool. It can be done better if you spend more time.

Carefully and properly clean your slide, and scan it again, at say 1200 dpi. Then you should have something worth spending your time and efforts.
I too have shots of "Devastation Trail" taken in 1968. Will have to dig them out and take a look at them. In fact, in my project of scanning all of my film, I am pretty sure that my two Hawaii files are next in line?

Thanks for the suggestions, as you might surmise, the original slide was well on it's way to the trash bin years ago when it was copied. I am in the process of using the cloning tool in Photoshop (if this is the right approach) to clean up the spotting. are there other tools and or processes that I could use in addition to the clone?

The spots are dust. It is best to get rid of them before scanning. Some slide scanning services use a powerful blower to blow them off before scanning.
