Doing the old man's face took a bit of patience and tenacity. But this is a good technique for healing damaged photos. I know I have some of these in my collection. It should be fun to restore them.

Here are the two faces of Hannah that I've practiced retouching. I found this a very interesting tutorial. I'm sure that I have many images that will benefit from these skills. I look forward to working on them when I finish this class and have more time.

One question I have is that when using the brush tools, I see a circular swish (like what you get when you sand with a circular sander). Is that trail based on the flow or intensity coverage or based on the speed of moving the brush? Also, the book doesn't mention using a graphic tablet in this exercise, but I wonder if that would provide more control over the tools? I'd like to hear some comments about using one so I can decide if I should buy one? Thanks in advance.

Question for my fellow students. Are any of you using supplemental books or web tutorials? Could you share the titles and/or locations of those items you find more useful than our textbook?
