That is definately a tough one. Don't suppose there were any other photos taken that day? I nearly thought that they were riding on grass until I noticed the green was caused by the lab printing. Best I could do was try to improve on the blue channel and leave it greyish. Don't suppose you have the negative for that image?

Hi, Many thanks for the improvements, this photo taken on the same day and place (in a quarry) gives  the background  colours if this helps, sorry I cannot find the negative.

Ken.

Okay, I've given it another shot, and this is as good as I can get it within size restrictions. Not my first lab damaged photo, but definately a rough one.
