Two damaged photos - need some restoration!
« on: Monday 21 January 08 12:28 GMT (UK) »
Caz said she likes a challenge - and this is open to anyone else who would like to help!

I have two photos of my grandmother as a child - both of which have been severely creased over time and were stuck in my father's album as you see them here.

I will post them seperately as their file sizes are a little large!

Any help is very much appreciated!!

Alex

Hi Alex

Had a quick bash at the second one but needs more work.  I'll have a go at the other one tomorrow but by then you will have gotten lots more I'm sure.

Thanks Iria - certainly a very good effort at a horrendously damaged photograph!

I think that one had been badly stored prior to my grandfather making his family album in the 70s where he just stuck every photo onto white card which went into a ring binder. I didn't dare try and take it off the card and scanned it in situ!
