Faded baby photo needs help
« on: Tuesday 18 September 12 13:46 BST (UK) »
Hi, Can anything be done to improve this photograph taken in 1965.  It is the only photograph I have of my daughter as a tiny baby and unfortunately I had it in an oval frame for many years and it has lost most of its definition. If anything can be done with it I would be very grateful.
Kind regards
Maggie   :)

Hello Irene, Tommy and Caroline,

Thank you all so much for the work you have done on my photograph.  It is lovely to see it restored back to it's former glory.  The colour versions are lovely too and her eyes were that lovely blue when she was small.  I am very grateful to you all your hard work.
Thank you again
