There are photographers/artists who have taken images of people from the past and changed the image to what they would look like today. I chose Thomas Jefferson.

Interesting project. Looks like Thomas Jefferson's modern-day persona could be interchanged with Robert Redford.

Good eye, stogieboy; Redford is who I chose to help make this transformation.

Thank you, Curmudgeon; here is how I did it:
Step 1. I found a good sized portrait of Jefferson and saved the image. (attachment 1)
Step 2. I cut and pasted a section of Jefferson's portrait onto a photograph of Robert Redford because I thought Redford had similar enough features as Jefferson. (attachment 2)
Step 3. I then placed the section of Jefferson's face on Redford's image and lined it up, soft erasing enough of Jefferson's face to have it blend in properly with Redford's. I also did some color adjustments as well.
