This is a photo of a very dear friend taken when he was about 8 he is 80 now and going blind it is the only one he has as a little boy could I have a bit of help please for him to be able to see it.

Hi Sue

Here's a quick clean-up and enlargement

I'll work on colour at some stage, but rather tied up this weekend.

Hello Rachel
If you could keep the eyes the same colour and maybe do different colour jacket and a different back ground, so that he can see his photo in a different light but  he is thrilled with all of them
Sue.
He cried when I showed him all your efforts he is 80

I've been revisiting some of my old posts and using online AI to see if there would be improvements on my previous works.  The results can be amazing and if you would like to try it out here is a link.
