Jan, what a lovely photo :)

Photos really need to be scanned at between 300-600dpi
to bring out detail and save the restorers eyes ;D
Is it possible for you to rescan ???

Hi Joy
The top photo has been scanned at 600 and the other was done at 900.
It is a small photo.

According to Photoshop BOTH photos are scanned at 96 dpi. :( :(

This is the best I can do.

PLEASE SCAN ALL PICS AT 300-600 DPI FOR RESTORATION PURPOSES.  THANK YOU!

I must agree with  Wendy
Both scans register at 96 dpi with Photoshop

Hippy ??? ??? ???
Please scan all photographs at 300-600 dpi.
Please feel free to colour/modify any restores posted by me.
An acknowledgement would be much appreciated.
