Can Anyone Help Please?
« on: Wednesday 10 August 05 16:53 BST (UK) »
This is the only photograph we have of my husband's grandmother and it was sent by email.   Would it be possible to sharpen it up at all so that we know what she looked like?

Many thanks.

Hi Jill

Just a quick go before I go out, I found her face is way to dark to pull any features out, maybe some else will have better luck.

Here are 2 lighter versions

Hi Jill,

Don't think this is any better - just trying to get Gran's face clearer.

Cheers

Having such a small photo there is only so much that can be done to improve the clarity of the subjects.
