Can this image of David Winton with some blemishes be tidied up please?
« on: Thursday 05 August 21 17:23 BST (UK) »
I've just discovered this photograph of my great-grandfather David Winton as a young man, his siblings and his parents, my great-great-grandparents, but it has a few blemishes. Can anyone help by cleaning it up please?

Hi Alistair, What a lovely photo, I would love to do it but am currently out of action at the moment due to "Neuropathic Nerve Pain" which is keeping me away from my hobby at the moment  :-\
I am sure that you will get some very good results though.

One from me

Sorry to hear you're out of action Carol. Too much 'computer elbow'?  Hopefully better soon with rest. :)

Hope you get better soon, Carol  :-*

It must be frustrating Carol if you're still looking in but can't get involved. Hopefully it's not for long!

Many thanks to Gadget, goldie61 and Peter.   :) :) :)
