Fix Photo please of my Dad and family paddling in the sea
« on: Monday 16 April 18 15:28 BST (UK) »
My dad is in the front of this photo so I know it is dated 1924.  Can you improve the photo so I can try to identify some of the others by comparing it to other photos.  Some colour would be nice too!

Many thanks,
Ann

Hi Ann and welcome to RootsChat....for best results could you scan the photo at a resolution of 300dpi. You can post a file size of up to 500dpi and your file is very small at 85dpi resulting in a lack of fine detail. There is a tutorial at the top of the board for guidance.
