Damaged in the 1947 floods, this precious wedding photograph is pretty far gone. Is it possible that the experts are able to save it please?  JohnCH.

Seems a very good try too, Sylvia! Thank you very much. I prefer it in black and white and it's so much clearer. I'm most grateful.
Best wishes. JohnCH.

All three of those are really wonderful - thank you Irene. How on earth do you manage it? I thought it could well be a lost cause! But it's a miracle what you've done. I am most grateful.  Thank you once again.  Best wishes. JohnCH.
