Restoration Obscura: Call for Photos and Stories

Do you have a photo from World War II, Korea, or Vietnam that holds deep personal meaning? A moment of military service captured in time—faded, damaged, or nearly lost to history?

I am seeking photographs of service members from these pivotal eras to restore and share their stories. Each month, I will select one image to fully restore, research, and feature on my website and social media—ensuring these legacies are never forgotten.

Each time I put out a call for photos and stories, the response is overwhelming, and while I can only choose one per month, I do my best to highlight as many as possible.

You can submit your images to restorationobscura@gmail.com. Please include any details you know about the image—the subject, the time period, and the circumstances in which it was taken.

If selected, your restored image and its story will be shared on public social media platforms. As a thank you, I will also send you a high-resolution version of your restored photo to keep.

Every photo has a story.
