Please can anyone restore this?

Hi Again,

Please can anyone do anything at all with this very badly deteriorated photo even if it only a partial as some of the faces are totally gone. Anything anyone can do would be a great help. Thanking you in advance.

Toni

p.s. I did send it in before.

Hi Toni - I gave it a shot -the little one sitting on Dads knee I couldn't do anything with but no doubt those with perhaps photoshop or some better program may be able to do so

Cheers  Maureen

sepia perhaps

Hi Maureen,

Thank you so much! This will certainly help me. It is such a shame the photo was not taken care of. It was taken about 1879 in Dublin, travelled to Winnipeg, Canada in 1912, travelled to Toronto and then back to me.

I truly thank you for doing this.

Right off the bat, in your restored picture, I noticed the child on the right had long pants o, which I did not pick up on my original. This gives me a clue as to the child being a boy.

Thanks again.

Toni.

and I gave him a bonnet

Thought it was a better option than a blob for a face - maybe I was wrong

Wish I could have done better with it for you but glad it was OK

Cheers
