It's my grandmother she was born 1891 and died 1925, it's the only photo that I have and would be really grateful for any kind of improvement.

Jim,
 It is big isn't it? She married my grandfather in 1914 and I did think it was around that date but wasn't sure,
Steve and BlueUK,
 Thank you so much for doing what I thought was the impossible.
They're lovely.

Pat.

Hello Pat,  :)

Working on it

George
Scan at 300 plus for restores please. Scan at larger dpi for small photos. Don't forget to crop the scanner bed out! (Them's the white bits)
Please feel free to alter any work by me for the benefit of the Poster.
