please sepia
« on: Saturday 08 January 11 15:59 GMT (UK) »
Please would one of you really clever people give these two copies of old  photos that I have been sent an aged sepia look and if possible add them together. They were originally on one photo but at each end rather than together.

What paper would they be best printed on to make them as authentic as possible.We think they were taken about 1910/14 would you agree.

In anticipation

quick one from me
GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers

Thank you both for doing this, both look great so will have a go at different papers to see which one they look best on.

Sorry about the wrong resolution Roy I just copied them from an email I received them in. Next time I get any like this will print off and rescan before posting.

Regards
Stubbs
