Sometimes a photo can be the last physical link between two people, but with time it can be lost forever due to spillages, tears, and other threats. This is where restoration experts come into play, and few are as good as the Ukrainian Tetyana Dyachenko.

Using her exceptional Photoshop skills, Dyachenko recovers extremely fine details in photographs. Neither creases, spilled liquids, nor cuts can stop her from bringing back the past. Sometimes Dyachenko even recreates missing sections, and you can't even tell that she had to make them from scratch. Here are some before-and-after examples of her remarkable work.

I think the original might have had a bit of a rounder face than this "after" shows.

Remarkable. People making negative comments on this lady's great skills are negative themselves. Tetyana Dyachenko is a genius and I doubt any of her detractors could run a bath, let alone restore back to life these precious likenesses that mean so much to their owners. Good for her. She's providing a wonderful service.

different shoes on the touchup of the middle child and hands are different. The faces though. Cryptic.
