Cell-photo restoration - Everybody knows how low the quality on a cell phone photo can be, especially when cameras first started appearing on cell phones. Here's your chance to show off your Photoshop restoration skills. Since most people own a cell phone with a camera, for this particular contest, you MUST use your own stock photo, posted in your SBS in its original, unedited state. Also CRB-ing (chopped beyond recognition) an entry is NOT ALLOWED!
Outside sources are also not allowed. The idea it to make a really crappy, low quality, but still decent looking cell phone photo into something you could frame on your wall. Portraits are suggested but entries are not limited to just portraits. Here's a good example of what I had in mind: Don't forget to resize. Good luck!
Required level: 5+ or higher. Status: finished. Check out the winners below!

Howdie stranger! If you want to participate in this contest, just:
it does look good, its a nice picture, but in the SBS i cant really see where you restored anything besides just really changing the color of the image and raising the contrast... can you explain what else you did? just curious cause i must be missing something
author says:
no u didn't miss any thing..its all about color changing ..and raising the contrast..exposure.....and blurring the water part...nothing more....and off course the color of the boat been desaturated a little by selecting that part...thanks for asking
there is no hi-rez cause this is full size (ironically the same as the display size.. i went to check the hi-rez button so that you guys can see for yourself that this is as large as it gets, but it wont let me, prolly cause its no bigger than this)
i appreciate your feedback, still i left the horizon this way intentionally.
i thing its giving the image a kind of a different dimension look
its like the kids are crossing over to the other place
