This was a photo taken of my Uncle Keith taken in about 1925. The family would dearly appreciate a repair of this beautiful photo of a beautiful person. Thank, in anticipation of seeing this damaged photo restored.  :) Deb

If a task is once begun never leave it till it's done. Be the labor great or small, do it well or not at all.

GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers

Regards Roy

Wow, as ever, some brilliant restores. Very very much appreciated. Our Uncle Keith passed away in Sydney last year (aged in his 90's) so these restores are very welcome. Thank you all for clearing away the damage and the tear. Firstly jloy326, thank you for a great repair and lovely detail, especially enhancing his face. Just lovely. Handy pandy your repair is very beautiful too, great work! Great detail of the table, shoes etc. Pat, as ever, lovely work. You have given young Keith depth and light and shade, brilliant, thanks. Japeflakes, thank you for this lovely black and white version, great detail of book and table etc. Tommy you have added a different dimension and this is a rich restore, lovely. Rsinbad, likewise, thank you for retaining the background; this is a fresh version in sepia. These are all so different and all lovely and will be kept and shared amongst the family.  :D
