Family in need of some TLC
« on: Thursday 15 March 07 23:11 GMT (UK) »
Would one of you lovely people be able to do anything with this rather delapidated photo of my grandparents and uncles? It's taken in 1910 and has been in my mothers handbag for about the last 50 years!!

I failed too  :'(.  You need Lady Di, or someone with her talents. Never mind, it was good practice  ;)

Cheers

Thanks Cazz  ;D

Can't wait to see yours.  I had trouble with the fingerprint, and all the missing bits,  I hope Murraymints gets a restore worth having, it's a great picture.  I just love the way Dad is holding his childrens hands, it shows a lot of love there  :) :) and the cute little shy kid, wonderful!!

Well done Genie, much better than my febble attempt  ;D ;D, I am pleased Murraymints has a decent restore, because of the kind comments on my botched job  :D :D.  Murraymints, that is a good restore, which is why I said I failed  ;D ;D

Cheers
