Restoring an old B&W photo
« on: Wednesday 29 November 23 06:01 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
I have been trying to restore this 50 year old b&w photo of my wife and me. I am not getting anywhere near. Especially the skin and neck areas are quite noisy. I would be grateful if some expert could guide and help me in this.This photo has been taken in India.

Welcome to Rootschat Vpkumar, I am bringing this lovely photo back up the board as I think that it has been overlooked.
