Hi kitschwitch,

If you can give us a higher resolution scan we can do more with it.

But anyway here is my attempt.

Cheers

Keith

PS How do I send a higher resolution?

It is easy to do with your scanner software - there will be a "slider" somewhere to adjust the resolution or dpi - you can send up to 500kb to this forum.

Then you will get even better results than everyone 's great attempts on this one.

Awaiting your next photo!!

Cheers

Keith
