Group portrait restoration please. My 2x Great Grandfather Grime as a young man.
« on: Tuesday 13 June 17 11:08 BST (UK) »
Hi there,

Would be extremely grateful if anyone could restore this photo, my Great Great Grandfather Jim Grime is seated far left. Unfortunately we do not know who the other lads are.. friends maybe, they don't look like siblings.

Thankyou!

Clean-up from me.
I used a high level of 'compression' than I usually do to stay under Rootschat's file size limit. For this photo, you probably won't even notice it!

If you do, you can download a less compressed version at https://www.dropbox.com/s/qd7uvn9805jl1mu/Jim_Grime_and_friends_or_Brothers-large%20%28mike%29.jpg?dl=0

You've all done a marvelous job with those restorations. Thankyou so much. You provide a free service at a professional level!  Mike, i will download the one on Dropbox and see if i can tell the difference. Either way its fantastic.

I'll show all of your work to my family (my grandfather will be able to see his grandad more clearly now) and im sure they will be impressed too.

Thanks again,
