A restore for the ones from Edinburgh please
« on: Friday 02 March 12 18:36 GMT (UK) »
Hi Restoreres

I don't want to appear greedy this week, but I was shuffling through some photos scans that have been sent to me from my OH's family & would love to have a restore done on this one & two others that I'll post separately.

I'd like to use the photos in a framed, photographic, multi-generational display along with a wool Shetland blanket one of these fellows sent to the brother in Canada, so my preference is for b&w without any fancy frame set into the photo restore.

Thanks in advance for your keen eyes & awe-insiring work.

I hope I've restored these fine moustaches to something like their original glory.

One day I hope to grow a moustache like one of these  ;D

Thank you very much japeflakes & corieltauvi!

They do have impressive upper lips, don't they? The fellow sitting in the middle looks like he spent a lot of time on his. I can't imagine kissing him though.  ::) ;D

You work is greatly appreciated.

Hi Wiggy. Thanks for working on it. You must have posted & removed while I slept. I appreciate the effort.

Lovely work Saddles/Carolyn. You've really brought out the eyes. I never met any from this generation & only two of the next generation, but I can say that the eyes have it!

Many thanks.
