A thank you to the developers at Adobe, CaptureOne, and Topaz Labs - as photographers, we rely heavily on the tools of the trade. Cameras, lighting, tripods, and editing software. It's easy (and often fashionable) to bash these companies for issues, business practices that some don't like, etc.., and they certainly do make mistakes. But we also need to be appreciative for what they provide in helping us get our jobs done. My wife's family has a rich collection of older photographs that I'm assisting with - here's a before and after. This would not have been possible without the tools provided (in this case) by Adobe (Photoshop), CaptureOne, and Topaz Labs (Sharpening AI) and the dedicated people producing these tools - and would have been far more difficult a few years ago. The results are amazing and help our family learn about their ancestors. Please keep innovating, to allow us to bring our creative vision to reality.
