Carol,

Brilliant! I wouldn't even remove the 2 spots - it's just about perfect.

why is it that people always want to "play",,?

It is a wonderful image that just needs a bit of TCL for it to last and last and bring the memories back with it each time it is viewed.
If anyone has problems with scans or prints etc see this link..
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,136704.0.html

Scan at better than 300 dpi if possible..if you do not know how just ask

Why can't we play?  It is not like we are damaging the wonderful original, it hones our skills and after all TT doesn't have to download any of the images does she?  Would you be offended TT if anyone "played" with your wonderful pic?  Just for practice etc....

Let us know

Cheers

Well, what a bit of luck that you've posted it before Caz gets back to her desk...she'd have that furniture not just polished but painted, reupholstered, rearranged and sat on little feeties to avoid marking up the floor...which she'd have had sanded and refinished as well ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Just kidding Caz ;D ;D ;D

Truly a photo worth a million. It sets me thinking about life and death and humanity. Both my grandfathers died before I was born and some people barely knew their parents...how many families are privileged to have representatives of four generations all together in one spot at the same time?
