AGood Days Fishing in need of a clean up
« on: Monday 05 October 09 20:46 BST (UK) »
Hi all

Would really appreciate help with this one,clean up and colour if poss.

The original as nearly faded away since I scanned this so am loath to scan anymore old ones.

Question is should this happen  ??? or should I take a fresh photo of the original

Many thanks

Hi Woolley  :)

A single scan should not affect the originals in that way.  How long ago did you scan this, and where have the originals been kept since then?  Have any of the unscanned photos faded in the same way?

Hi Prue,

This was the only one scanned, about 6 months ago, not yet scanned the others (all simular type)

Edit - Originals kept in a sealed box. The others show no sign of fading

Just wondering, when you scanned the photograph had you previously cleaned the scanner with any kind of cleaning solution.

Just a thought?

Well here is a copy from me.
Question. Were there really a lot of buildings in the background or have i imagined them in the smudges?

Thanks for that Jim,

excellent cleanup :)

Beyond my skills  ???

Looking at the scan I donn't think there were that many buildings, more trees than anything

Regarding scanner I just usually wipe with a lens wipe

Here's another version with a few trees (smudges!) in it.
