Can someone please clean up my Grandad?
« on: Monday 06 March 06 12:21 GMT (UK) »
Hi
Yet another that has not been looked after!

Could someone try to do something with Grandad (on the left) and his workmates, i understand it was taken on the day of his retirement from being a parks gardener. A clean up and black and white would be absolutely great.


Just want to give you all a big thank you for all your time, you really dont know how grateful i am to you all.

Hi Ruth,

Had to have a go at this one - as I see you must have read my post about large scans  Wink Wink
P.S. If you want a print-out I have a large scale one.
P.P.S. Even now - as that famous Indian fighter once said - you can't see the whites of their eyes!!

Cheers

Keith

Hi Ruth,

All you need to do is put any picture in your picture viewer and lower the saturation, to make it black and white.   Wink

Cheers
