What an adventure!
There was a massive Adobe update that had to be taken on before anything could happen properly. Magic.

This is the best I could get out of it...
Well...it's better than the originial

Hi Irene,
Another good restore. I think this photo is bringing out the best in everyone.

Really stretched me, I learned a lot.
What is so annoying, I think, is there are so many details, but it's difficult to get to them.
What ever, I enjoyed it.

Paula I really think a higher dpi would have helped bring some of that detail out. With this much damage I think 600 would be better.

Hi Everyone

I agree with Betty,

You do some wonderful work and when the picture is this bad I really don't know how you do it!

And I agree with Irene, Rabbit, the more dpi the better with this one.
It's a beautiful picture.
