Please help to clarify this newspaper article photo of my husband's grandparents; it's the only photo I have! It was taken in 1947. Thank you in advance...Antoinette Russell

Sorry, I had not properly read your post. I am afraid I can`t do photo restorations. I thought it was a point in the text you meant. I ought to have read it properly before I replied.Viktoria.

No worries Victoria. I am glad to have heard from you anyway. Hopefully someone can make a photo out of this newspaper article. Thanks...Antoinette

If you have the original newspaper and the pattern only appears when you scan it then do a search for 'moire pattern' in this forum and you should be able to find some hints and tips on avoiding it when you scan an image

I don't normally have a go at these because I'm not that good but here's an attempt. Unfortunately the software blurs the image as it attempts to remove the moire pattern so its not quite as clear as I'd like.

Thank you for trying, it actually looks better than my newspaper image!  :) And thank you for the 'tip' on searching for 'moire pattern' I will certainly do that! Thanks again...Antoinette

For some reason the Big red V tv and broadband service was unavailable most of today...

So I had a play with this   not sure what it will look like.. when posted, but it was a learning curve
for me.
