Hi
I wonder if you recognise anyone in this photo other than my two relatives in the RH corner. I would be glad to hear more about the history/background. Wingood

Hi Wingood,

The second photo is in pretty good shape and others have posted good restores. The first photo is very 'red' and much less detailed. So I just want to check: is your original photo so red too? Did you scan it with the same settings as the second one? If so, no problem. If you're able to post (a link to) a better version, that would be better to work on.

Mike
Photo restorers may re-use and improve on my posted versions. Acknowledgement appreciated.

I thought everyone did very well with these.  Photos in this condition are very hard to restore.
