Can this be sharpened please?
« on: Sunday 10 November 13 00:29 GMT (UK) »
Is it possible to sharpen this up please. It is a relatively 'modern' photo but the person in it has passed on.

Many thanks

Thank you! Better than it was I think. :)

It's for a friend who's mum died when she was a wee lass and this is the only photo of her mum she has.
