Re Scanned Any Chance of a little colour?
« on: Tuesday 17 February 09 12:38 GMT (UK) »
Hi, i was advised to crop the size of the original photo down so that it was easier to do, thats why there are two pics of my grandfather now on the site, i hope i have done it right this time as im not very good at getting the sizes and resolution right!!, im hoping to get a little colour as my grandfather died shortly after this photo was taken from cancer, we have no colour pics of him at all and i think there are only a few pics of him ever taken! so the ones i have are very special but i thought it would be lovely to see him with a touch of colour.
Thank you for all help and advice
