This is an experiment with removal of JPEG Artifacts and Noise caused by the in-camera compression of images into the JPEG format. The tool being used is Topaz DeJpeg. When looking at the image SOOC at 400%, I can see a lot of artifacts and noise in the image. It is not noticeable at normal viewing sizes but the difference made by removing the artifacts and noise is noticeably cleaner. I also inhanced the colour tone with Topaz Adjust.
Talk about dancing to the oldies!
The Volta Graphophone Company of Alexandria, Virginia, created on January 6, 1886, was formed to handle the commercial development of their sound recording and reproduction inventions, one of which became the first Dictaphone.
After the Volta Associates gave several demonstrations in the City of Washington, businessmen from Philadelphia created the American Graphophone Company on March 28, 1887, in order to produce and sell the machines for the budding phonograph marketplace. The Volta Graphophone Company then merged with American Graphophone, which itself later evolved into Columbia Records.
