Thank you Carolyn that restore is amazing.

Yes isn't he wonderful. Born in Wales in 1845 and emigrated to Qld in 1883. He died in 1933 aged 87 years so this photo was probably taken not long before his death.

Thank you once again. I really appreciate you restoring him.

Here you go. A simple clean up, and some contrast enhancements. I didnt do any sharp filters, as i felt the picture did not need it.

Cheers.
