It's true, much of European architecture is centuries old and in many instances, only bombings during war has brought others down.
When I first was given the Magic Lantern slides I now restore and use as sources of derivatives, I spoke with one of the agents that represent my images about restoration, digitization, submissions and marketing; we agreed that much of the charm and value of the images was in their inherently "old" appearance. Consequently, we also agreed that I would not restore the images I submitted "TOO WELL" as that might make them appear "recent" as opposed to "vintage."
I don't submit the derivatives (posters, engravings, etc.) to agents/publishers as they prefer to make their own decisions as to usage/publication, the derivatives I market on my own site.
"Scratching" out an existence so-to-speak.
Loving every minute.
Thanks, bf; have you looked int Photoshop Elements for you Mac OS?
My wife's daughter is studying in Germany, and she took these photos. The architecture doesn't seem to have changed much.
