Title: discolouration of Laura with Dad
Post by: loz_scotland on Saturday 31 August 19 21:59 BST (UK)

Can anyone improve the discolouration on the left of this photo. It is of myself and my late father. I had multiple surgeries as a child and was often in plaster casts as in this picture. It looks like they have tried to protect the cast by wrapping it in some kind of blue material. There certainly weren't any cast protectors like you get nowadays. Thanks for any help

Hi Loz...For best results...Is there any chance that you could scan this at around 300-400dpi as this is a very small file at 56kbs, you can post a file size of up to 500kbs on here.

You've done a really good job Japeflakes with what you had to work with.

Hi folks,
              thanks for your efforts with my pic much appreciated. Unfortunately I don't have the original as this was sent to my by a relative who took a photo of the original print and emailed it to me. May be able to get a scan done some time in the future but no chance at the moment

Thanks again
