Title: Photo restore please
Post by: dhaskett on Friday 28 September 12 16:27 BST (UK)

Hi,

Could someone please restore this picture of my grandfather, and maybe have a go at adding a little colour. No need to go crazy with the colour, he was a fairly reserved man!

Thanks for all your help,

David

Not a whole lot better then! It's a scan of a scan. I can try to find the original and scan it in again at a higher resolution. The only problem is that the original itself is pretty poor quality too.
