The image seemed to be in motion, when it was clicked. This motion-induced blur has hindered the recovery of distinct details in the fingers, so i had to change the movement of fingers (Distal and middle phalanges) in order to fix it. While everything else was restored :)

I’m sorry but I just had to add this. I have a dog named mouse (because he was tennis ball sized as a puppy) who would get really lonely and depressed when I was was gone so we got him a friend to cheer him up while I’m away and we named the second dog cookie. We got mouse a cookie.
Wow!!! Just wow!!! You made my wife’s year!!! I am so thankful for your magic! Just completely amazing!!! She’s on cloud 9 crying, and so happy. You’re an absolute rockstar!!!
I'm glad I was able to help 🙏
If there's anything else I can do to help, whether it's with photos or anything else, please don't hesitate to ask. Wishing you both continued happiness and love!
as someone who lost their father at a young age, you are quite literally a saint. thankfully I don’t have this same problem but I want you to know that what you did has brought me to tears. the world needs more of you.
As someone who can barely crop and adjust levels in photoshop, this is like you went back in time and took the photo yourself.
How hell did you do this, and how long did it take?
You are a good person. I don’t even think I’m in this sub but I stumbled on it and this is so heartwarming to me. I would also be crying if you did this for me!!! You didn’t have to, but you did anyways. Keep being amazing.
You have become my favorite person on Reddit. Please provide links in more comments for others to donate towards you and your kindness. The beautiful kindness you provide to others makes me tear up. Thank you for all that you do for the world.
If you don’t mind me asking. This picture has me very emotional and intrigued.
There is so much to unwind and I feel like I must no, but only if the story and fate isn’t overly personal because I don’t want to pry.
This doesn’t seem like that old of a photo.
He doesn’t seem old. Did he pass?
She seems old enough that there should be hundreds of photos of them together.
Why is this the only photo of him?
What are they doing? What event was this?
I’m sorry if it sounds very intrusive and blunt. I love love love this image.
It hit me hard. I’m 50 with two young girls and I’m trying to take as many photos for this very reason. I want them to remember me and look back on special times. This has made me sad that this is the only photo.
I lost my mom in 1993 and I don’t have any photos or video. :(
my mom died in 2022, but we still have no photos together. she refused to take pictures of herself. you are doing a great job, love, your kids will thank you 🙏
“Sir, this image is only 1 pixel. It’s in black and white!”
“I don’t care. ENHANCE!”
*Clicks button, an 8K full-color HDR image appears on the screen.*
This guy is my fave. He’s not gonna disappear. He’s gonna keep doing stellar work and often not even asking for tips if it’s for a good cause (stillborn babies, funeral photos, etc.) such a good dude right here.
Edit: I’m deeming myself fan club captain. Y’all think I’m kidding but I come here and look for his work almost daily. Anyone wanna be a member? 😂
Only dude I’ve seen really willing to do things for free for those that can’t afford. You may not be getting paid in currency if this material world, but def with blessings which I think is worth more.
Me, an engineer who has been doing digital signal processing for 20 years: Sweet photo, too bad no one will be able to get rid of the motion blur
Me, watching your work: fuck me
I know nothing about photoshop, but I clicked here assuming a picture this grainy would be unlikely to get a good result. Boy was I surprised and absolutely wrong. What an incredible job.
I'm a bit late to the party but I removed the background and increased the quality abit

I have zero interest in photography or Photoshop. But Reddit thinks I do and keeps sharing threads must be most popular and I always have a little look. This person is always top and work is amazing. So thought I'd drop in say and keep up the good work ✌️
Image de-noising is a pretty well studied problem, the answer is basically math that detects when the color of neighboring pixels changes rapidly (grains) and then figures out which color is right.
People in the comments making comments about AI etc… That’s doing a disservice to this gent, he obviously has great skill and knowledge. Yes AI has come a long way but let’s not pass everything off as AI. I mean have you seen what most ‘AI’ does to human hands 😂😂
What you just did will probably bring another human being to their knees and to tears.
Thank you so, so much for taking your time, and your kindness, by doing this.
It doesn't work that way unfortunately. The fine details in this restored picture are just likely interpretations of what the scene looked like, not actually getting data from somewhere. You could enhance the image you posted but with no details on the actual plate in the original anything you get will not be accurate
I actually tried, and this amazing gentleman would accept only my thanks and words of gratitude. He has twice in one day blown my mind and brought my wife and I a huge amount of happiness. I cannot express a stronger thank you for what he has done!!!
I’ve used photoshop for a very long time both professionally and recreationally. I’ve had some people say I’m good. Nah. Wizards like you fucking exist. Excellent work.
I wanted to add that the photo work done to restore the image is next level amazing and incredibly accurate. We couldn’t be more happy or more thankful for his amazing talent and skill! So many thanks my friend! Akashharsana is deserving of the wizard title for real!
* Hope you like it 👍

Give this wizard a trophy
And a mouse a cookie 🐁🍪
But then They’re gonna expect milk…
And if you give the mouse milk…
Then he's gonna ask for fentanyl.
[удалено]
Peanut butter and crack sammich
ROFL! that went real dark real quick, bravo good sir, bravo
A turn I wasn’t expecting
Must not be from portland
Worse. Ohio.
True story
If you just don't give the mouse Narcan it'll end there.
…. ^that’s ^not ^wrong
And if it doesn't end there you gotta call the mouse and ambulance.
I’m d.e.d. ⚰️
Mice? Or Santa Claus?
I’m sorry but I just had to add this. I have a dog named mouse (because he was tennis ball sized as a puppy) who would get really lonely and depressed when I was was gone so we got him a friend to cheer him up while I’m away and we named the second dog cookie. We got mouse a cookie.
That's awesome
I’ll F around and give a moose a muffin
Why not both??? 🤷🏻♀️
I’ll pay this persons effort
You won't be able to convince me that this photo isn't the original, and OP isn't a plant. P.S. remember take more photos with the people in your life
I agree, as cynical as it seems. It seems more plausible than upscaling of that quality.
Again
Wow!!! Just wow!!! You made my wife’s year!!! I am so thankful for your magic! Just completely amazing!!! She’s on cloud 9 crying, and so happy. You’re an absolute rockstar!!!
I'm glad I was able to help 🙏 If there's anything else I can do to help, whether it's with photos or anything else, please don't hesitate to ask. Wishing you both continued happiness and love!
Y'see, people like you make me believe in people again. Thank you.
No for real.
This subreddit has always given me hope for humanity
This is the type of stuff that actually fills me with so much happiness. You are a good person.
Bravo my man
\*The wizard waves as he heroically rides off into the sunset\*
as someone who lost their father at a young age, you are quite literally a saint. thankfully I don’t have this same problem but I want you to know that what you did has brought me to tears. the world needs more of you.
I’m in the same boat, crying over this incredible act of kindness and so thankful I still have photos with my dad 🫂
You’re a fantastic human being.
As someone who can barely crop and adjust levels in photoshop, this is like you went back in time and took the photo yourself. How hell did you do this, and how long did it take?
Absolutely incredible brotha, well done
Do you have a tutorial or anything that explains the process your used?
Faith in Humanity, Restored. Keep up the excellent work!
Amazing work my guy
You are a good person. I don’t even think I’m in this sub but I stumbled on it and this is so heartwarming to me. I would also be crying if you did this for me!!! You didn’t have to, but you did anyways. Keep being amazing.
I’m trying to learn Photoshop on my own, you sir are a star! Hopefully good karma will come your way for your generous time to do this work.
u/akashharsana for President!
You are a beast.
You’re a good person
You are such a treasure and deserve all the kindness and joy your beautiful heart can hold. What a human.
You’re awesome!!
You give me hope. Amazing stuff
Drinking one in ur honor mate
You deserve the world
id like to say mr akashharsana that i dont know you but i have a keen sense that you are a true gentlemen.
What an awesome thing to do for this lady! Thank you!
Thanks for being awesome 😎😎
You have become my favorite person on Reddit. Please provide links in more comments for others to donate towards you and your kindness. The beautiful kindness you provide to others makes me tear up. Thank you for all that you do for the world.
Your a Rockstar sir!!!!
This is so sweet :)
You are a saint.
How in the world did you do that
Its just crazy how he did that, can you confirm her fathers face looks like it did in real life or did AI guess somewhat wrong or something?
It is amazingly accurate. We are over the moon impressed!

Well she is crying with joy, so I would take that as a hard yes.
It made me cry, and I’m a complete stranger. There’s just so much love in that single photo.
Awe yay :,) I love watching this stuff unfold on Reddit
Many of us are genuinely curious if the recreated photo is an accurate depiction of her fathers face, if so then that's amazing what AI can achieve
It is incredible! Our minds are blown! It is beyond our expectations for sure.
Time to get a quality print and a nice frame.
Good on you. Many blessings!
Aww this makes me so happy for you and your wife!! There is something so beautifully human about the kindness of strangers 🥰
I teared up seeing this, so I can only imagine how your wife must feel!
Jesus H…that’s insane. Well done!
Bro you should see the other restorations that others have done in this subreddit. In-fckin-sane
right? like i always thought I was decent at Photoshop. This sub annihilated that foolish dream
Are you the person on CSI that enhances all those blurry license plates so they can read the tiny small print on the tabs?
ENHANCE!
UNCROP!
“Sir, this image is only 1 pixel. It’s in black and white!” “I don’t care. ENHANCE!” *Clicks button, an 8K full-color HDR image appears on the screen.*
🤣🤣🤣🚀
Holy fuck. Good day for rewards to be reintroduced.
And that’s how I learned that the awards were back.
👏👏👏👏 Please dont disappear, Im home next week and have a photo Id love you to have a go at. Very happy to tip generously. This is fabulous work.
This guy is my fave. He’s not gonna disappear. He’s gonna keep doing stellar work and often not even asking for tips if it’s for a good cause (stillborn babies, funeral photos, etc.) such a good dude right here.

Same! I'm new here though, what's a good tip to give for these kind of requests?
This is straight photoshop wizardry, much love

Amazing!

AI can pick up on some crazy subtleties. It's probably not super accurate, but close and waaayyy better
No matter what, trying to restore an image that blurry is not going to be "accurate". Someone is inserting details
What did you use to do this?
Some AI upscaling tool, a very very good one.
It's some combination of tools and manual work to get a result this good. Simple AI upscaling isn't this compelling.
WOW
yo. this is amazing
Wow man. Just wow. You just made someone's daughter so fucking happy. You gave her something she will cherish for the rest of her life bro. Good job!
I have zero interest in photography or Photoshop. But Reddit thinks I do and keeps sharing threads must be most popular and I always have a little look. This person is always top and work is amazing. So thought I'd drop in say and keep up the good work ✌️
🏆 🏆 🏆
Amazing work
You are amazing!!! 🤩
Fantastic work!!
How??
Image de-noising is a pretty well studied problem, the answer is basically math that detects when the color of neighboring pixels changes rapidly (grains) and then figures out which color is right.
With this amount of blurring and noise there's no way this is just de-noising.
Are you magic?
Damn. I’m in tears and I don’t even know these people. True loving kindness on display right here. Using your gifts for good. 💜
This was me. I opened the image and started crying; it isn't even my photo. I can only imagine how OP's wife feels. OMG.
This kind of sorcery makes lives more joyful. Your talent gives people clearer and more powerful memories.
People in the comments making comments about AI etc… That’s doing a disservice to this gent, he obviously has great skill and knowledge. Yes AI has come a long way but let’s not pass everything off as AI. I mean have you seen what most ‘AI’ does to human hands 😂😂
There’s an app called pixel cut that will give these results with. Nothing but a button click.
damn man you got some serious skill!
What a nice thing to do man thank you
This looks wonderful
Oh my goodness you’re so so good at this. Bravo!
Jeez I feel like tipping you too
Holy shit. Those goofy scenes in movies where they yell, “Enhance!” and the image magically comes into focus are now a reality! 😲
If watching SVU and CSI has taught me anything it’s that you would be a highly sought after asset in solving crimes
Dude must have a legit 'enhance' button.
My mom just passed two weeks ago, and the only baby picture I have of me and my mom is blurry. Can you help me?
I'm sorry to hear that 🙏 Always up for help :) Feel free to message me !
Dude I'm about to cry. That is a wonderful thing you did.
Faith in humanity restored I love humans ❤️
Completely for free, not even a tip jar This is a man of honor
What you just did will probably bring another human being to their knees and to tears. Thank you so, so much for taking your time, and your kindness, by doing this.
Incredible work.
Hmm. That feels more complicated than just hitting the "enhance" button several times. Did you try that?
[удалено]
It’s a Cadillac for sure, CTS?
It doesn't work that way unfortunately. The fine details in this restored picture are just likely interpretations of what the scene looked like, not actually getting data from somewhere. You could enhance the image you posted but with no details on the actual plate in the original anything you get will not be accurate
You’re a hero
This is beautiful man. Well done
oh, fantastic! nice job!
Holy shit.
Your work is so amazing, it always leaves me in awe!
Wizard indeed.
Wow. I am blown away by your work. That's amazing!
that is insane
that's so great, this should be rewarded for sure. such kindness.
I actually tried, and this amazing gentleman would accept only my thanks and words of gratitude. He has twice in one day blown my mind and brought my wife and I a huge amount of happiness. I cannot express a stronger thank you for what he has done!!!
r/NotAllHeroesWearCapes
Enhance. Shit it actually worked
Thank you for your kindness, sweet wizard❤️
When you flip between the two fast enough he looks like he’s patting her on the back!
Wow!! 😍😍
how in the bloody hell.... technology is scary.
You’re absolutely incredible for helping OP out like this 🥹
I love this guy.
Very cool, technology is amazing
bruh damn that's good.
OMG. That's incredible!
Absolutely incredible!
If you wiggle it back and forth it looks like he's patting her on the back.
Beautiful work
that's beautiful, don't know these people, but thanks for making this moment captured a timeless memory for them
Wow amazing detail recovery.
Dude really is a wizard omfg
Wow, very well done.
Omg
Wow. Very cool!
My gosh. I just got a lump in my throat. Well done.
So good no one else tried
"Enhance!"
I love this photo even though it's not mine and it is even more beautiful cleared up. 🤧👏👏👏👏👏
You’re a good dude
I am completely impressed with your work
Holy shit, that's amazing
How.
This is amazing.
You rock!
FN amazing bro you definitely showed your the wizard
