Before I post , Question please
« on: Sunday 04 May 08 11:25 BST (UK) »
Hi

I have a photo I would love to have restored as it is quite faded ..sadly i don't have the original to scan only a copy sent via email.

I have looked at the information available to me of the scan & this is what it tells me.

4.2 x 4.2 cm; 1.7 x 1.6 inches
Original size & Current size 500 x 495  Pixels
Resolution 300 X 300

I know from the restorers that this is not ideal..But could it be restored  or am I out of luck?

Regards Judi

Here is another version.
