Sorry it's not better, but it is a difficult photo.
I like the little boy with his bow tie, all posh....but he's got it crooked. Some kids just can't get things right!  Smiley

I would like a better scan please.... I know the others have attempted the small photo but it would be better if you could scan again.

We are allowed up to 500KB on this board and the MINIMUM resolution is 300DPI.  There are good reasons for this...

1. you will be able to print out a larger copy and maintain the quality.

2. the larger the photo and higher dpi the better it is for the restorers eyes! When we spend HOURS over a photo it can damage our eyes.

Please could you scan at 300dpi  - Scan the photo, preview, select only the photo, then scan, it will give an option to select quality.. select HIGH quality, this means it will not compress the data and the image will be clearer and easier to work with.

If you need some help, please PM me.. This photo will come up well with a larger copy Grin
