Hello Apologies for not reading scanning notes. I have resent the photo I am interested in improving.
I know nothing of photo restoration processes. I have a 1930's photo of a relative we are anxious to learn more. It goes without saying the photo is black and white. I would like to find out how to brighten it and get more definition so I can see the people more clearly.
Any advise or information would be gratefully received Thank you for reading this
best wishes Sue

Sadly I cannot rescan - the original is a 1000 miles away in a private collection. I was only available to take a digital photo of the original which is stuck in a large album.
I would delete the topic and photo but I cannot find a help tip of how to do this. I do not wish to waste anyone's time or annoy other users.
Apologies
Sue

Thanks to Niksmum and GAR for their brilliant efforts i now have a much better image and can see the face of a long lost ancestor for the first time.
The original photo was a poor copy taken with a digital camera out of an old album so they had little to work with.
Thanks again to everyone who offered help and advise - all appreciated
Sue
