Hi you lovely bunch of people, it's been a while, huh? I've recently been self isolating due to contracting the virus who must not be named (yep, that's a Harry Potter joke, sorry).

With all this free time on my hands I thought I'd try learning the basics of photo restoration. Seem to be getting the hang of it, let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

Then and now

Bit of an Arsenal* day today, enjoyed creating a few new effects and styles

*other football teams are available

Lockdown seems the perfect time to pick up a new set of skills or find a new passion. Mine has been learning more about, and creating, digital art. Hoping to develop more skills as I go but a good start along the path :)

Past and present combined

1941- Flying Officer Zdzislaw Radomski of the 306th Polish Fighter Squadron after being decorated by General Sikorski with the highest Polish military honour, the Virtuti Militari, as well as with the Cross of Valour. During Operation 'Circus 85' on 27 August 1941 pilots of the 306th Squadron were attacked by four Bf 109 Messerschmitts over Dunkirk. F/O Radomski was the only Polish pilot wounded; although his arm was shattered he landed his Spitfire safely at his home base, RAF Northolt.

The company's products, such as Pong and the Atari 2600, helped define the electronic entertainment industry from the 1970s to the mid-1980s.
