A clean up challenge anyone?
« on: Monday 09 January 12 19:39 GMT (UK) »
I'm reasonably good at using photoshop but this image is so damaged I don't know where to start.

Anyone else want to have a shot?

It would be a lot easier if the photograph was larger.

Thank you carolyn and nicksmum for giving it a go. You both got much further then I did! :(

Ma cara, when you say larger, do you mean physically bigger - as in the width and height? or higher resolution?

Hi Jillie,

Previous version deleted - didn't like it.  This one is a bit better.

Cheers, David.

sorry to hear that Irene but I don't think it's that hard just need little time and thoughts before restoration. You done a good job regardless.
