Would I be right in thinking they have been scanned as black and white?
They would be better scanned as colour I think.
One of our experts should be able to confirm this or not, might be worth asking if your friend could have another go at scanning.

 ;D  Thank you very very much Japeflakes, i have been trying to do that all after, how did you do it, as there is still the gentleman on his own to do, i would love to know how you did it for future reference.

Sinann, The photos are copies, of copies,of copies  of very old black and white photos, hence they are not the best unfortunately, i was trying to split them to see if i can do anything with them to enhance the photos.
It is a challenge but i thought i would try it if i could get the pictures split.  :)
