COMPLETED with thanks! - Restoration help please
« on: Wednesday 06 March 13 07:35 GMT (UK) »
Hello

A friend has asked if I could post this photo on his behalf. It shows him and his brother sitting atop their family air raid shelter! He is planning to write a personal story and post the photo to a local history site.

Would it be possible to repair the photo please? No colouring is required. It looks a bit overexposed on the left-hand side and there are a couple of obvious creases. Any improvements much appreciated!

Thank you very much!

Kind regards and God bless you,

Roy
GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers

Regards Roy

Oooh, Roy! Have just noticed the shadow/3D effect! That really makes it pop!

Thanks again!
