Title: Enlargement If Poss of Mr Kenworthy
Post by: Certificate Man on Friday 25 November 11 16:57 GMT (UK)

These two fine looking gentlemenwere founders of a club to which I belong.

It is our centenary next year and these are the only know photos of the two founders, but sadly they are very sa=mall, and one is even copied from a book published in 1899 !

What I am hoping is that they can be enlarged without losing too much of the images.

Is it a go-er ?

And if so, will someone have a shot at them please ?

Thanks

Antony

Hi Antony

Both your photos have been scanned at a very low definition - 72 dpi

If you can rescan at a minimum of 300 dpi you will automatically get a larger output picture
