« on: Sunday 03 January 10 07:02 GMT (UK) »
Hello all,

Happy New Year :)

I found this tiny photo in very very poor condition. Can anything be done?

I apologise if it hasnt scanned well.

Kind regards

Hi em,

You are clever :D I honestly thought it would be hopless for restorers,

Thankyou so very much, the picture looks great.

Hi

If you read Cazzas tutorial on scanning
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,198165.0.html

and repost without scanning the scanner lid I'm sure you will get many more restores

Hippy :) :) :)
Please scan all photographs at 300-600 dpi.
Please feel free to colour/modify any restores posted by me.
An acknowledgement would be much appreciated.
