Title: Curran Carlow c.1884
Post by: Anseo on Saturday 03 June 17 22:12 BST (UK)
This is a very old and very fuzzy photo of two very young Curran sisters c.1884. I don't know if it's past redemption. I would appreciate if the photo could be brightened and sharpened a bit, if that is possible.

Thank you,

I'm glad that Pat showed the first version, because I began by removing the blue and suspect this may have been an early attempt at a colour photograph??

Pat and Handy, thank you for taking on the challenge. I'm seeing two little girls now, as opposed to a 'blob'.

There does seem to be a hint of colour as you say Andy could it have been coloured or an early attempt at a colour photo.
