Restoration of WW1 photo William Baird please
« on: Thursday 26 June 14 12:46 BST (UK) »
Could someone please attempt to restore the very badly damaged photo?

I would also like permission to use restored photo in book and will acknowledge person.

Thank you very much in advance.

I see you have gone off line already but when you return can you rescan this at a higher resolution. This one is a very low 64 (?) dpi and need to be 300dpi to get the finer details (faces) as there is so much damage.
If you need help there is a tutorial at the top of the board ...or just shout and someone will help you

Its a nice photo  ;D

Irene unfortunately that is all I have.  It is from a website http://gordonhighlanders.carolynmorrisey.com/Baird.htm

I have the website owner's permission to use the photo and story for a book on Buchanhaven WW1.  I'm hoping to use the orginal and a restoration.

Bill, thank you very much.
