Yes, not too long ago, my mom wanted me to put together a montage of all the family photos that she had. There was alot, that I had to scan in, and put together in photoshop. A few years ago, my parents lost their house, well I believe alot of family photos were left behind, unfortually. So I put together the pictures my mom did have. So then, my father decided to include pics from his family.
In the end, I made several montages.
1 of my sister and I growing up (school pics) plus 3 family shots (sister and I, and parents)
1 of my parents (from when they were kids, to when they met, to now)
1 of my cousin (who is close to the family) and her 2 children.
1 of everyone on my moms side of the family
1 of everyone on my dad's side of the family
Alot of the pictures I have seen before, but some I didn't. It was nice to look through all of them.
i recently tried my hand at using PhotoShop to partially restore some old family photographs. Some of them were quite badly damaged and I couldn't do too much, but I managed to make some improvements on several. Here are two of them:
My paternal Great-great grandfather and siblings. Circa 1880.
My maternal aunts. Circa 1917.
I also have several my dad took with a Kodak camera while in the Navy during WWII. And an entire album of late 1800s photos in rural Colorado.

I love literally holding history in my hands.
Nice job on the restoration. It is a tedious process.

My grandfather was a keen photographer who developed his own films, I never thought of it before but perhaps photography is in my genes!
My grandfather was also a photographer. However, I never knew this until 3yrs before he died. So by this time, he was really going down hill and I never got the chance to talk to him about photography.
