Please restore this. It's not great quality, but it's very special. ;)
I've just discovered that one of the family photos that my husband & I scanned 3 weeks ago is:
- my grandfather who died the year before I was born
- my great grandfather who died in 1937 (I only have 1 other of him taken in 1903)
- & my great great grandfather who died in 1943
I'm doing a happy, happy dance! ;D
I look forward to your magic. :)

Thanks Irene. :)
I sent the scan to my dad this morning. (He was the youngest of the children & not born at the time of this photo.) He didn't see his dad very often & all he could say was, "Wow, I didn't realize how much I look like my father." He'll think that even more now that you've refreshed it.
Thanks again.

WOW, how the hell did you fix that photo? ::)

I love awaking to find photo restores. It rates among my favourite experiences. Thank you Yvonne. :)
Hi Emmeline, it's been a long time since we crossed paths. Yes, it is a thrill. I had no idea this photo existed until I visited a distant relative a few weeks ago.
Hi Edwardo. Yvonne is correct that it was an animal park. It was named the Moose Jaw Wild Animal Park. From what I can tell, it was a small zoo showcasing primarily the animals of Saskatchewan. It hasn't operated for years.

Another for you
