please restore family member, Russell family
« on: Sunday 20 October 13 18:08 BST (UK) »
Please help me to restore these family photos that I have recently gotten a copy of, if you can please and thank you. I realize the photos may not be of great quality as they are old, but I am hoping for some clarity in the restoration. Please see what you can do, I would like to share these before this man passes away as he is very ill.

Thank you very much John! That's wonderful! hard to get a very clear picture as it's an old photo and it was very blurry, but it's nice to be able to make out the person in the photo; too bad he had a cigarette in his mouth! You can tell the photo is back in the days of people smoking! thank you very much for your restoration! :)
