Would anyone like to take a shot at getting rid of that music stand with the orange papers? My uke group played for an hour yesterday for the local Historical Society. It was celebrating its 100th anniversary.
EDITED: It's frustrating processing a picture that someone took with an old, "cheap" camera in JPEG.
Where's Waldo...I mean Jerry? Bebu and I want to know.
Jerry, I am guessing that you have worked on this one already. So, my best wishes as you share it with family or friends.
I think that many times it is not the cheap camera nor the jpeg format but rather the subject matter. By that I mean that often we get a photo to rework when others do n ot know what to do with it. For example, in this case, the long line makes it tough to keep both ends in focus and to have the correct exposure. The left end is well under the roof of the pavilion while the right end was probably almost in the sunshine. And just having a bright outside as a background makes for a tough composition.
I have gotten some good photos from inexpensive cameras and most of my photos are edited from the jpeg format although I keep the RAW and use it if it gives me a better rendition.
Just some thoughts. --Richard

In know what you mean. I always shoot raw, so I have more to work with when processing.

A little late to the party but ...., here's my best shot. Removed music stand, repaired floor, lightened faces, desaturated slightly.
There is still one detracting thing, unless Jerry has a large black blob hanging from his right ear. I'm surprised no one has mentioned it or removed it yet. Everyone that worked on the original did an excellent job. IMHO
