A scruffy Higgins photograph
« on: Saturday 28 October 23 15:20 BST (UK) »
Could someone please do a tidying job on this rather scruffy photograph taken in Athenry, County Galway.

Scratches and blemishes removed
Edges restored and slightly adjusted the tones
Not sure if the black shadow in the 3rd left panel above the 1st Higgins word is meant to be there or is just a blemish, so a second version is added.
