Another tricky 1900 photo - can anyone improve?
« on: Wednesday 06 July 11 13:46 BST (UK) »
Hi all

I have another photo of one of my great Aunts - Aunty Florence Holdsworth. You can see that it is a scan in or photocopy _ _ I wondered if any body could improve this photo - ie make it look more like a photo / clearer/ maybe with some colour. I knwo it is a difficult one but this is the only copy i have so am hoping some clever people might be able to help. Thanks so much.
