Little girl rather creased
« on: Sunday 29 August 10 13:34 BST (UK) »
Could anything be done with this photo, it's rather battered.

Thank you

Thanks Charles w much better.  My mother said the just before this photo was taken her mother pulled the leg of her drawers down beneath the hem of her dress so the lace would show!

 ;D ;D ;D ;D....That's so funny...It's a very low res scan Lancsliz...although Charles has made a good job of it...you would get a much better restore and print from a scan with a resolution of 300dpi...this one is only 72 dpi and pixelates badly on enlargement with great loss of definition.

This is a photo about postcard size and I'm not too sure how to scan  at 300dpi, can you help with some tips please.
