Title: A small gift of Patricia's children. US
Post by: Steppen on Wednesday 18 March 15 18:28 GMT (UK)

I was wondering if someone might work their magic on this pic? Her children miss her very much and today would have been her 65th birthday and they don't have but a few pics of her. Thanks.(resized)

Any chance of a better quality scan please? This is too small for me, sorry

If this is a photo booth photo Steppen you will need to scan it at about 800dpi for best results....Resizing only pixelates it as you can see.

Thanks so very much Bill, great work!  Thanks Carol I will try to resize it again. This is the original size ... I don't know how to resize it to 800 dpi

You work wonders Irene!     Don't know how you do it!   Very tricky photo.

Steppen

What Carol means is not resize but to actually rescan the image and in your scanner software change the settings so the photo is scanned at 800 dpi.

Anyway, while we wait for a better scan if possible, I've had a play as well.

Cheers

Added a bit of texture to make a bigger file.
