Help improving the quality of Grandparent's photo
« on: Friday 08 February 13 14:55 GMT (UK) »
Hello, I have recently found 2 photos of my great grandparents. However I had to take photos of the photos, and I was hoping if it is possible to improve the quality of them. Is there any way to remove the reflection of my hands on my grandfather's photo and the light bulb on the hat of my grandmother? I have no idea how to go about it myself.
Many thanks in advance, Joshua.
