Can you put my mother straight! walking up the Murraygate in Dundee
« on: Monday 12 November 18 20:26 GMT (UK) »
I think this might be around 1952...my mother and her pal walking up the Murraygate in Dundee. Could someone please straighten this photo up and if possible make it into an oval...any improvement much appreciated. I'm afraid I can't rescan as this was sent as a scan I know this is not ideal.
Thanks

Thanks Xinian,
It's years since I've viewed this at the correct angle!

When my mom died my brother sent me this image albeit at a bad angle. I remember this image in my youth but had not seen it for over 40 years. I'm hoping to incorporate it my write up of my family history. The woman with my mother was witness at my parent's marriage in 1953. Many thanks for taking the time to improve the image.

Here's my offering. I synthesized an extended background. Hope you enjoy it. 
I just like to do photo restores.

Many thanks to xin, Pat and DrDude - no crick in my neck now! Very impressed with the synthesized an extended background I thought further cropping was the only solution to this image. Such generous folks on Rootschat :)
