Only Photo of 7 Siblings
« on: Saturday 08 September 07 07:48 BST (UK) »
I don't know if anything can be done to improve this photograph, but it is the only known photograph of my darling mother and her 6  siblings together. I do not have the photograph myself....only this scan. If anything can be done to improve it, I'd be over the moon!

This photo is suffering from the typical symptoms of half the subjects being in the sun whilst the others are in the shade.
Have done a few very quick adjustments to get this result
Photo restoration: For best results please scan at 300-600dpi

Feel free to use my restores for further enhancement, but please acknowledge my original restore/colouring thank you

Oh wow, ukpapasmurf........ that's amazing....so much clearer. Thank you so much!

There are just 3 very elderly siblings left now, and I'll make sure they all see that.

Thanks, Poll. I'll appreciate that.

There are a number of photos of 5 of the siblings, or even 6 of them.....but this one is a treasure. There is not even a photo of any of them all together when younger, and absolutely none of them when children.
