Title: Pls help restore photo of baby Muriel with Gran Muriel Annie Aiken (Aus, 1922)
Post by: iforani on Friday 16 February 18 05:21 GMT (UK)
Hi This photo was taken about December 1922 in Victoria, Australia. My beloved Aunt Muriel (Ouie), born at Elsternwick, Victoria, is being nursed by her grandmother, Muriel Annie Aiken (nee Smith, supposedly, but dna suggests otherwise). Please help restore this beautiful photo. Unfortunately it is an ipad photo of a photo. Thank you! Deb :)

Thank you, Loord74. You have done a lovely job. Yes, I am sorry about the quality of the photo. I will try to get a copy of the original. What you have done is great though, thank you so much.   :) Deb

Thank you also, Peter for your great restores in black and white and sepia. It's lovely to be able to see the photo without the tears, intact. I will pass these on to the family of the woman who was the baby in the photo (ie my cousins), if I have your permission as well as Loord74's permission. Thanks so much.  :)

This is a charming photo and I would love to have a go at a larger scan for greater clarity. Well done to those who have done this one, great results given what they had to work with.

Thank you, Loord74 and Peter! Carol, when I am able to copy this photo again, I will repost it (won't be until March though that I see my cousin again to copy it).
Thank you also Pablo59 for adding another dimension to the photo by creating a different and interesting background. Rootschat is lucky to have so many talented people!  :) :) :) Deb
